    I read the first post again out of disbelief of his early passing and in my own way found some consolation. Even in death, Connor was selfless, donating his organs to people in need. He may be physically gone yet he continues to make a great impact on other peoples lives, allowing them to live a better life. This is the true form of kindness and generosity! RIP Connor.

    One of the bright lights of this forum just went out with Connors passing. I'll miss ya man. I can almost remember my first post with him. Sharing a love for Toyota cars and his growing love for the truck side. Peace and love my friend. Rest easy:proposetoast:

    I’m so shocked and sad to hear about Connor’s accident. It’s truly a sad day to hear about losing one of our brethren. I haven’t been on here long, but I’ve noticed that this forum is about treating each other as family. It’s about people such as Connor that impacts our forum and leaves an everlasting impression behind. My condolences to his family, friends and tundra family. Rest In Peace Connor.

    I'm glad I had the opportunity to meet Connor at the Toytec Open House earlier this year. He was very friendly and always had a smile.

    He will be missed by many

    Although I never conversed with Connor, it's obvious he left a positively indelible mark on this community. Godspeed the healing and I can only wish the best for his family and friends to understand and cope with the loss of an obviously amazing individual.

    I met Conner at a Toytec event and immediately liked the young man, you could tell instantly from his personality and smile he loved life and I bet was a great friend to those that knew him well. The world will be a lesser place without him and his thoughtful donation will allow others to carry on his love.
    Connor, you will be missed

    Being a funeral director, I see this all too often. No seatbelt, and it makes you want to wake the person up, so you can strangle them! I have only been a member here for a couple months, but have had several conversations with him. Outgoing and open to help would be the first 2 words that pop into my mind about him. RIP Conner. lol.. just realized I didnt know his real name.. damn.

    along the lines of being a funeral director, if there are any questions or any way I can help, maybe get an urn (if cremation) or something, please let me know.

    This is not the way I thought my morning coffee and checking The forum would go. I looked forward to meeting Conner at Toytec as I had watched him do so much for others on here. His energy and love for life was obvious in person as well as his stories here.

    He probably had no idea how many people he impacted.

    RIP

    The love and support, outpouring of condolences from this community is humbling. Being relatively new to the forum, its always stood out to me how willing everyone is to offer help and look out for others.

    Connor was taken much to early, such a tragedy for a light that shined so bright. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and all that were a part of his life. RIP!
