Conner’s family would like to thank the first responders with SEVAC for their dedicated and tireless efforts to save Conner, the Emergency Department at Community Memorial Hospital, and the staff of the eighth floor of Upstate University Hospital for their care and compassion.  Additionally, we would also like to thank Jenn Keida, and Conner’s entire “work family” Standard HVAC & Insulation.
