Gary Bruce Conners
1939 – November 24, 2024
Gary Bruce Conners passed away peacefully on November 24, 2024, at Gilmore Lodge in Fort Erie, Ontario, at the age of 84. Cherished husband of Norma Shellington-Conners, Gary was a loving father to Colleen Jasnich (David) and Susan Conners (Mike) and a proud grandfather to Kristen and Erin Tubbe, Lucas Jasnich, and Emma Christine.
Gary was a beloved brother to Gail Lawson, Carol Finley, Linda Botbyl (Harry), and Rick Landry (Heather). He was predeceased by his parents, Ken Conners and Ruth Landry; his sister, Sandra Petersen; and his brothers-in-law, Pete Petersen, Ron Finley, and Bob Lawson. Gary will be fondly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, neighbors, and friends.
A proud veteran of the Canadian Navy, Gary also had a distinguished career as a police officer and corrections officer. He lived life on his terms — with love, laughter, and no regrets.
