With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved son, Connor Reed Wangerin, who left us after 16 short but precious days. Born on July 22, 2024, Connor brought immense joy and countless memories with his gentle presence and loving snuggles.

Connor is survived by his devoted parents, Brad and Cierra Wangerin; his sister, Colby Zbikowski; and his cherished grandparents, Tobin and Steve Wangerin, Blake and Kimberly Craig, and Lisa Craig. He was deeply loved by his aunts and uncles, Peter Wangerin, Molly Bruget, and Hayley Lane, along with their families. Connor is preceded in death by his Uncle Colby Parker Craig, who we know welcomed Connor with open arms at the gates of Heaven.

Diagnosed with a fatal condition in utero, Connor's journey was marked by courage and hope. His parents cherished every moment they had with him, and he fought bravely for 16 days before passing peacefully at home, held in the arms of his mother and father.

Connor was a dream come true and a fighter until the end. His memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved him.

A private family service will be held to honor Connor's short but impactful life.
