It is with broken hearts we announce the peaceful passing of a devoted father, a loving son, and committed partner Kevin Thomas Leonard Connors, who passed away in the arms of his loving family.
Welcoming him at the gates of heaven with warm arms are his grandmother Philomena; grandfather Thomas; best friend Tyler Pitman, along with several aunts and uncles.

Kevin was bigger than life and was truly a gift to all who knew him. The love he had for his large family and massive circle of friends was unconditional and unwavering. He had a lifelong passion for sports such as basketball and softball, that he shared with his family. Along with his love for card collecting and trading where he made many friends. His loss will be felt everywhere.

Deepest sympathy to Kevin’s family. This is hard to believe. The basketball photo breaks my heart. That is how I will always remember Kevin. Those were the best days!
Tom and Family:
So very sorry for your loss.Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.🙏🙏
Kevin was more than a friend—he was family. He had a heart big enough to hold everyone he loved, and I was lucky to be one of them. My children adored him, and he loved them like his own. He was their uncle in every way that mattered, always there with a joke, a helping hand, or just his steady, kind presence.
At only 34, he left us far too soon, but the impact he made in that time will never fade. He brought laughter, warmth, and a sense of belonging wherever he went. I’ll always be grateful for the time we had, and I’ll miss him more than words can say.
Rest easy, Kev. You were one of the good ones.
My dear brother my soul is broken beyond words that I can express . You were amazing in everything you did and left such a huge hole that no one can hold a candle to . You huge smile would lift up any room you walked into . It was you and me against the world . I’ll forever tressure every ball game you played going through school as I did canteen and the tickets at the door of each game watching you play and remembering the pur joy you had for the sport . The last 3 weeks have been the hardest thing I had to face watching you fight for your life to come back to us . But God had other plans for you and called you home . I left a huge part of me in the icu that night as we all hugged you and talked to you leaving you was the hardest thing I have ever done . It’s OK brother because we all have a number and when it’s time we will be 6 again . I love you beyond words and miss you like crazy . We will cherish your 3 beautiful children and cass because they are you ❤️. I love you kev make sure you tells nan I love her and say hi to Mr. Beautiful for me . We will meet again some day .I love you kev ❤️
Sad day for everyone who knew Kevin. I had the privilege of knowing Kevin and he was a kind hearted man. You’ll be missed big guy. Condolences to the whole family.

My brother, my best friend no matter what I say nothing will amount to the love I have for you. You truly were my best friend, the best big brother anyone could ever ask for. My heart’s aches so much with the loss of you, I do know you’ll forever live through your beautiful children. You’ll forever be a part of us all. I held you while you left this world. I stayed with you after you were gone hugging you and kissing you telling you it was okay you fought so hard to come back to us but it’s okay to let go. My heart bleeds so much pain and hurt.
There’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do for you. It’s not goodbye forever. I’ll see you when it’s my time to join you. I love you so much brother.
The Jugs and Thugs softball team will never be the same without you, Kev. You’re going to be missed so much brother, we love you ❤️
Absolutely heartbreaking. You’re gonna be missed just as much as you were loved uncle Kev. Missing and loving you always
