Being your Girlfriend the last 2 years has been my honor. Thank you for choosing me to spend your time with. Thank you for loving me with every ounce you had. Thank you for all the kind gestures you did for me. Connor would make me food during my work days at home and I love to cook but this guy would kick me out of the kitchen. He was so particular about things like how much milk goes in the Mac and cheese 😅 or we must have every ingredient to make certain items. He was always googling and had to follow directions to the T and hated that I’m a eyeball it kind of cook. We went to a couple weddings in the last 2 years I’m so grateful to have been able to spend time with him. We would frequent 6th street and we would also stay home and watch movies with take out as well. He loved being a social butterfly and knew no stranger. DJing and tattooing were his dreams and he accomplished some pretty cool goals for himself. There’s too many memories to put into writing. Connor was the most loving person and boyfriend. He was a great dog and cat dad. He loved our animals so much. He was so so so kind and he will be so missed. I love you Connor. 💕 Until I see you again. I know your watching over us all. 

I met Connor shortly after moving here about 4-5 years ago. We worked together promoting for 2 of those years. He always had a smile on his face; it was infectious.  He was one of the most down to earth, funny, charismatic people I’ve ever met. I’m going to miss the random heart to heart talks, the blissful energy he brought to shows, watching the sunrise after staying out all night with us crazies, and just the overall love and support that he had for his friends. I am blessed to have met you Connor McShane. Rest in paradise friend, see ya on the flip side

Sparkles 💕 you were always one of my biggest supporters. Every time you entered a room a light entered. You’re such vibrant energy and we are all blessed to have known you. I’ll see you on the other side, my friend. I’ll never forget our accidental matching sunglasses 😂🥰

Over the years, both of us having sons close in age, we shared a lot of stories about our boys growing up and becoming men. But my best memory was when we took Connor and Ryan on the fly fishing trip. Spending several days together without social media and just conversation , I realized  how intelligent and funny Connor was.  He will be truly missed. Sending prayers. 

I don’t know how to feel. You were such a best friend to me. You made me believe that I’d be okay in Austin. From dancing with you until we meet again please know how much I love you. I can’t put into words to hug you again. That day will come

I have known Connor since he was 5/6 years old through working with his mom at her clinic for the last almost 20 years , her babies became my babies and over the years shared in all the joys and pits of motherhood together and one memory of Connor we tell over and over between us is how Connor who at the time was a teenager needed a immunization shot for school so he came to his moms office not knowing that was the reason and so I told his mom I got this and talked to Connor who said nope not doing it after thinking I convinced him due to his sweet charm and adorable smile I left the room to get my things , upon my return he was gone I searched the clinic no Connor and thinking I have just lost my boss’s kid I was terrified…only to find out he ran out of the clinic around the building and called his grandmother to pick him up ! I was so mad because I was scared I lost him and typical Connor when he came back flashed that smile that nobody can stay mad at and said sorry . I will forever remember his charm and smile and how sweet his heart was ..  This is not goodbye but see ya later !!! 

I’ve known Connor since he was around 7-8 and watched him grow up into a wonderful young man. Sending my condolences to Connor’s family in their time of need. 

Rick,

I remember one evening years ago in South Carolina, you and I talking over dinner about our sons being of the same age and their love of the outdoors. As a father, I understood the pride and love you had for Connor as you spoke fondly of him-  That love will continue on.

Know that my thoughts, prayers, love are with you my friend and the McShane family.

Sincerely, 

Perry W. Turner

Dr. McShane:

I am stunned and deeply saddened by your loss.  My condolences and thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

Adam Tucker

I have had some good memories with Connor, one night we had a long talk that I will never forget. Recently, I saw Connor and he gave me a great big hug, I know everyone wishes they would continue to get more of his hugs and see his big smile. Connor you are missed and loved by many ❤

Connor, one of the nicest people I’ve met and gotta love that smile. 
I met Connor right when I moved to Austin, TX about 5-6 years ago. 
I didn’t know anyone yet besides the “guy in the sparkly scarf” around his face. He gave me the 1st (and best) light show. 
I kept an eye out for him at every show begging him for another and next thing I knew we had the same friends and became great friends. 
Love you so much friend ♥️ 
To the moon and back!

Dr. McShane

Our paths have crossed on a few occasions and when made aware of this I wanted to make sure I shared my personal condolences at what must be a very difficult time for you and your family.

You all are in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,
Jim Norris

I got to know Connor through promoting and going to shows. He always had to work hours after the show ended and we always thought it to be hilarious! What a funny guy. Extremely influential in the Austin EDM community. I saw him downtown just days before his passing and I remember giving him a big smile and a hug, as always. He will be greatly missed.
