Thomas Daniel Conner

Thomas Daniel Conner, 71, went to be with the Lord on Thursday, July 27, 2023. Better known as Dan the Man, he was a godly man who loved his family unconditionally. Dan had the biggest heart and would do anything for anyone. Born on Tuesday, August 14, 1951, to the late Elmo Carlyle and Mary Edith Rhodes Conner, he was a proud member of the USMC who served valiantly in the Vietnam War. He was the true definition of a Jarhead who was respected by his peers and always gave his all. He was crazy about his grandbabies and his little dog Arabella. Those left to cherish his memory are his loving and devoted life partner, Pamela S. Duke, as well as her children, Robert Winfield II and Ashley Whitaker. His family said, "We hope they have all the crab legs you can eat in heaven". Special thanks to the staff of Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital for their compassionate care given to Dan and their family. Services will be held privately.
