Connor Scott Zieky
Connor Scott Zieky was born September 24, 1991 to loving parents Jon and Liz. He was their second of four boys and was loved fiercely by his brothers Jake, Alex, Chase and honorary brother Dylan Quenneville. He was loved by everyone in his big, crazy family, but especially by his Neen, grandparents and cousins. Connor came into this world exactly as he left it: wild, funny, adventurous and magnetic to all who knew him. While his story started in Avon, CT many adventures took him all over this country. With each stop the stories and friends that accumulated became almost countless. Connor lived his life to the fullest and shined brighter than most could imagine.
The Foundation
The Connor Scott Zieky Foundation was established to carry on the legacy of a son, brother, cousin and friend to so many. Connor’s light and zest for life was sadly taken far too soon, but we are following in his footsteps by using this tragic loss as an opportunity to help make the world a better place - exactly as he would have done. We are now a 501(c)(3) certified Guidestar.org foundation.
