September 11

This post is not related to our reunion, but to acknowledge that, on this day 16 years ago, a man who began BC with us was killed in the attacks on the World Trade Center.

Kevin P. Connors ex’68 was a BC High grad who commuted to BC freshman year from his family home in Quincy. By the end of freshman year, he had won appointment to the US Naval Academy, from which he graduated in 1969.

In 2001, he was senior vice president of Euro Brokers and 55 years old. He was the stepfather of Karim Aryeh ’02, still a BC student at the time.

Kevin’s name is listed at the University’s Memorial Labyrinth, among the 22 BC alumni killed on September 11, 2001.
