Mark and Becky Flannery, he became their sixth child having four older sisters and a big brother. Connor was an active infant and child, full of energy and seeking adventure as he started his journey through life. Tall, handsome and athletic his passion for life was like an overflowing fountain, making its own course and rules as it flowed freely. Full speed was his jaunt, inviting all to join if they could keep up. Soccer, baseball, basketball and football came easy, and provided achievement and friendships too many to mention. Energetic, kind and loyal to the family and friends he loved was the nature of this 6′ 5″ tall young man. He grew up in North Salt Lake and Centerville where he graduated from Viewmont High School. A member of the LDS Church, he served with the young men and loved coaching their basketball team, he was also an Eagle Scout. Connor met his soul mate Ashley Bauman and they were married in the Bountiful Temple on September 19, 2009, for Time and All Eternity. A gentle giant, he was an amazing husband and father who loved playing with his son Dax.

Ashley will miss her best friend, as will Connor’s children and family, but knowing this separation is only a moment in the eternities to come, when at that special time and place his smile and huge embrace will again lift us.
