Connor graduated from Sparkman High School in May of 2012

and Briana; grandparents Gene McCarter, Sandra Whitman, and
Edna Whitman, special friend Brooke Carlan and a host of other

Connor was a vibrant young man with great plans for his future.
He had accepted a job with DynCorp International and was so excited
about moving forward in life. One of Connor's greatest joys
was being able to attend Auburn University in his grandfather's
footsteps and being a Pike (Pi Kappa Alpha). Connor felt such
honor to be apart of such a wonderful group of men.
Connor had a great love for his family, and he loved spending time
with them traveling to football games, many family vacations and
making sure he did everything he could to take care of them. One
of his proudest moments was becoming an uncle. His love for
kids was unexplainable. Connor had an unbreakable bond with
his niece Anslee and always wanted to make sure that she has a
wonderful life.
Connor was the apple of his mom and dad's eye. He was always
a bright light in a dark day.
Everyone that knew Connor
remarked on what a respect- able young man that he was.
