I'm just now hearing about this tragedy; I never knew Connor, but I know Connor's father, Brian; a good, decent, hardworking, and even brilliant man, in so many ways. Reading about Connor reminds me of Brian; my heart breaks for my friend. My condolences go out to the entire family and I pray for the repose of Connor's soul.

As the days since your passing fade to weeks, and now gears, my sadness has not abated. Your loss was completely avoidable, and the fact that the person responsible is immune to the rational, moral, and normally legal repercussions of such an egregious and  irresponsible act - only makes the pain worse. I wish we knew then what we know now, but God had plans for you son, and while I disagree with Him, this is His plan not mine. That said, our battle now is to take what we have learned and do something about it. We are fighting in your honor, Connor. We are striking at the foundations of the system that allows VA providers to take the lives of US veterans, and we are trying our hardest to stop this from happening to any more veterans. I miss you dearly. I miss hearing how you are doing, what you are planning, what you are learning, and how you and Alex were taking on the world on your own terms. It was so exciting and it all ended with one nurse practitioner who continues to practice and do the same thing to other, unsuspecting veterans. Until we meet again - “Til Valhalla!”
