I knew Connor. He lived 30 minutes away from me I was so sad to hear about this and the whole community was heartbroken. Thanks Ryan for allowing him to have the best experience of his life ❤️❤️

Way to go, Ryan Reynolds! It's so sad to see cancer take another beautiful soul so prematurely but I bet he made his last days here with us just grand. Great actor, and great kid. God rest his soul.

I'm not going to lie, I knew him.. He was one of my best friends and I miss him so much...

Rest easy brother, we only talked a little bit before you went away for treatment. You were a compassionate person, you were funny as hell and a great friend. Hope to see you again one Love you brother

Connor we a great friend and i went to school with him when he was here. He was supposed to graduate with us this year we all miss him so much. Fly High Connor💙🕊

This is something that would probably change the way I look at life through Connor's and Ryan's perspective. Since everyday our immune system kills a cell that could've been cancer if it had lived, it helps me reflect that we all could've have it worse. Tough kids like Connor are battling with pain every day around the planet and have a limited amount of time to cherish life with family

Indeed, good show Ryan-respect earned.

So sad…I graduated with Connor’s mom, such a good person and she had the whole community’s support…her only child…the day Connor passed he became everyone’s hero…life taken way too fast and the strength God gave his parents was and still is amazing…if I know anything it’s that he surely is in heaven…rest easy sweet boy and Kim I will pm you soon to check in🙏♥️

omg i was friends with Connor i don't care if anyone will believe me but i know it's true so do all of my friends that knew him so well. I also know his school cause i went there for half a year, this is the most tragic thing that happened i was ever so close too R.I.P Connor Mcgrath if i had stayed at that school i would have been best friends with him :, ( i had known him pretty good when i first went to the school we were friends from the second day we had lockers beside each other i now remember everything that happened those first few days and won't forget it.

If nothing else at least Deadpool puts a positive spin on cancer..
