Barney Conner age 40, of Gays Mills, passed away June 24, 2025 at his home surrounded by family.

Barney was born February 6, 1985, to James & Jackie (Kilroy) Conner in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They lived in Delevan Wisconsin, and moved to various other places. In 6th grade they moved to Soldiers Grove, Wisconsin, and then to Gays Mills, Wisconsin, where he attended North Crawford School District. He attended North Crawford until 2002, and then graduated from Tomah High-school in 2003.

A special thank you to St Croix Hospice and the friends at White Construction who stayed by his side through everything - Collin, Daryl, Ryder, and Craig.

At Barney's request we will have a celebration of life. He wanted a party, not sadness and tears. Please wear something blue or tie-dyed.

A Celebration of Life is planned on August 31, 2025, at the American Legion Post #220 in Soldiers Grove, WI from 12-6 p.m.
