Mr. Connell Short Jr. Obituary

In Loving memory to my brother Conell Short Jr, who passed away at the age of 79 on May 23rd, 2024. 

Connell was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where he attended school. If any one was to ask me to describe what type of person he was, I would say Connell had a strong "silent type" personality, with a very good sense of humor and compassionate heart towards his mother (Fastina), siblings (Bessie & me (Dusty), plus extended friends & family.

Connell has a great passion towards body building/exercise and one of his life goals was to become a professional boxer one day. Since he had great admiration and respect for Boxer Joe Louis. 

Although he succumbed to serious health related issues, he will always be remembered as good person to those who knew him. 

God bless you Connell and rest in peace my brother, your good spirits will always be present in all our family's (mother, sister, and brother) thoughts and spirits in the living as well as in death.

We all will get that call from God, when it's our time to go the final resting place in peace.

Lastly I like to thank all the people in his life along the way that were helpful, supportive and provided need care to my brother as he battled health issues that made his journey of life a bit easier to navigate through.

Love always, 

Brother, 'Dusty" (aka) Short
