Our goal

Liam O'Connor tragically lost his life doing what he loved. Skateboarding. He wasn’t just a teacher. Liam had a gift for making students feel seen and heard. He encouraged them when they were nervous, believed in them when they doubted themselves, and celebrated every success—big or small. His kindness, patience, and ability to connect left an impression on everyone lucky enough to know him.

We will always have you in our hearts, Liam. You were a great friend, kind band mate, amazing musician, compassionate teacher. Thanks for the joy you brought to our lives. We will carry a lot of great memories of you for the rest of our lives.

In memory of our beloved nephew Liam on his birthday. We still cannot believe he is not here with us and is unable to celebrate with his family. We deeply miss his warmth and kindness to all and treasure the happy memories we have of Liam growing up with our two children. Our thoughts are with Barbara and John on this difficult day. In loving memory, Uncle Birdie and Cioci Mary

In honor of Liam, so his love of music can be shared. Thinking of Barbara and Johnny.

Barbara, John, and Liam’s family dynamic was such a special thing to follow over the years and music was fundamental. Bless you all.
