Harold Conners Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 18, 2017.

Harold (Hal) Conners, 95, of Rancho Bernardo, CA, passed away on August 16, 2017.



The funeral service will be held at 1:00 p.m., August 31, 2017 at El Camino Memorial Park, 5600 Carroll Canyon Rd., San Diego, CA 92121 (858) 453-2121. Visitation will be held at 12:00 p.m. Burial will follow the funeral at Miramar National Cemetery at 2:30 p.m.



Hal was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. He graduated from Bennett High School and continued on to receive a Bachelor’s degree from Rutgers University. He served in the Marines.



Hal worked as an Actuary Consultant for Johnson and Higgins, in New York, for many years and later in Europe. Throughout his life, he was very active in, and passionate about, sports. He was still playing golf or tennis, almost daily, well into his 90’s, and served as an inspiration to friends and family. He was also an avid skier in earlier years. He regularly contributed to several charities, and treated others with kindness and generosity.



Hal is survived by his 3 children, Bruce, Cindi, and Scott; and 6 grandchildren, Erin, Alexis, Bruce, Natalie, Caitlin, and Erika.



Hal was predeceased by his son, Craig, in 2002.
