I can't say that I knew Connor particularly well, but in the time that I got to spend with him, he always came across as a genuinely kind and caring person. He had a good sense of humor, was always willing to help out others, and had a bit of a mischievous streak to him (thanks for spawning an entire fleet of nomad ships on my Defender as I fly around New York). We're all lesser for his loss, and if I could be there for his family right now I would be, as I'm sure all of us would like to be. Sadly the vast majority of us cannot, but we are all there in spirit.
I'm not sure if you are going to be keeping up with this thread at all, but if your family hasn't held a memorial service for him yet, I'm sure we would have more than a few people that want to send our condolences, or possibly even attend if that is something they are able to do, if your family would welcome it that is.
