Conor Randal McNaughton

Conor Randal McNaughton, 27, died on 4 January 2020. Conor was born in Snellville Georgia on 10 September 1992. He is survived by his parents Jim and Anna McNaughton, his siblings Rory, Catherine, Jamesie, and Aoife; nieces Áine, Kathleen, Emma, Niamh, Alice, and Aiva; nephews Seamus and Conall; eleven aunts and uncles; twenty first cousins; and many, many more relatives and friends.

Conor could hold any room with his lively talk, his exuberant laugh, and—he would add—his good looks. He was full of life. Adventurous and well-travelled, he made friends across the world. Conor enjoyed what was fine and fun. He loved good food and snowboarding. Conor was ambitious, entrepreneurial, and positive about the future. He was also frank, self-aware, and unafraid to learn from failure. In recent years, he overcame addiction to start and run a thriving roofing company. Many good people supported him on that journey. In turn, he inspired and helped others who had their own struggles with addiction. He is deeply loved. He will be sorely missed.

Please, no flowers, but if you would like to donate to Doctors Without Borders in Conor’s name, or to another charity of your choice, that would please the family.

His funeral will be held at 10:30 AM on Friday, 10 January at St. Marguerite d’Youville, 85 Gloster Road NW, Lawrenceville. Online condolences may be left at www.wagesandsons.com.
