"Kia Kaha" (In Maori: Be Strong, Keep Going)

Connor Patrick Glassett began his eternal journey with his Creator on Thursday, September 22nd, 2016.
He was born in Binghamton, NY on December 27th, 1994 to Kevin and Elise Glassett.
He is survived by his best friend and sister, Morgan Glassett, his chocolate lab Tobi, Grandmother Barbara Glassett, Godparents William and Theresa Clark, Aunts Ann Marie Schaeffer, Patti Smith, Eileen Keene, Ellen Glassett and their spouses, Michael Schaeffer, Ralph Smith, Brian Keene, and Robert Glassett and Uncle Tyler Rittwager. As well as numerous cousins, friends and colleagues, near and far.
Connor had such a love for life, travel, poetry, music, intelligent conversation, hiking, laughing, mentoring both friends and little children. He was strong in his convictions, but would not judge another for their beliefs. Connor loved spending time with both family and friends, telling stories, cracking jokes and making everyone around him smile.
