250 America (Historyfacts.com)

 In the spring and summer of 1787, a contingent of lawyers, businessmen, and other highly regarded state representatives met at the Pennsylvania State House to fine-tune the parameters of the shaky federal government that was established by the Articles of Confederation, the nation’s first stab at a framework for government. Known as the Constitutional Convention, this meeting was perhaps the most momentous occasion in the short history of the United States following the end of the Revolutionary War.

Even in the absence of founding fathers Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, who were serving ambassadorships in Europe, the gathering boasted a formidable collection of the nation’s leaders, including James Madison of Virginia, Roger Sherman of Connecticut, and the elderly but still razor-sharp Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania.

As described in The Summer of 1787: The Men Who Invented the Constitution, many of the 55 delegates carried with them a raft of ideas and some combination of deft oratory skills and a forceful personality to push others to action. As such, there was no shortage of passionate speeches and threats issued over clashing values, although it proved to be more of a challenge to find calmer voices willing to nudge the rest toward compromise, and an additional challenge to pull the oft-debated and revised proposals into a document with language that would stand the test of time.

Obituary - Connor James House (the boy who loved to sing in church)

 From his first struggling breath to his last, Conner brought love, joy, and peace to everyone he came into contact with. While he couldn’t say much with words, he spoke volumes through his zest for life, facial expressions, vocalizations, and laugh.

Conner had the best laugh. He loved running people over with his wheelchair, playing catch, listening to the toilet flush, and any bodily sounds—especially farts! His laugh was infectious and could lighten any mood.

If you had the opportunity to know and interact with him, you have been blessed. If you had the opportunity to hear about or observe him, you have been blessed. And if you didn’t have the opportunity to meet him, we hope you will take the time to learn about him and the way our Father in Heaven used Conner to spread His love, and be lifted as we have been.

Conner’s family will miss him terribly, especially his parents, Brian and Susann; his brothers, Ian and Sean; his sisters-in-law, Danielle and September; his nephews, Roger and Scotty; and his niece, Callie. His niece Lillian has the blessing of meeting him in heaven before joining us here on earth. His grandparents, Richard and Betty Mills; all of his aunts, uncles, and cousins; and many dear friends will also miss him deeply.

Family members who preceded Conner and joyfully welcomed him to his heavenly home include his grandparents, Floyd and Phyllis House, and his favorite aunt, Alisha.

Conner defied the odds and blessed the people of this world for 30 wonderful years. He came into this world early, and he left it early, and we are grateful for every blessed minute we had with him!

Thank you to the Garden City ambulance crew, the Logan Regional Hospital medical staff, and anyone who has cared for Conner. We will forever be grateful for the love and care you gave.

In lieu of flowers please donate to an organization that cares for children with special needs.
