From generation to generation the Connelly family has continued a tradition of personalized service for its surrounding communities. In 1924 John Gordon Connelly Sr. opened the funeral home on Eastern Avenue in Essex. Later, in 1961 Mr. Connelly relocated the funeral home to Mace Avenue. By 1967 Mr. Connelly's two sons John Gordon Connelly, Sr. and Charles O. Connelly, Sr. took over the family business.

He is a graduate of the Kenwood Class of 1966 and a member of the Kenwood Career Hall of Fame and the Kenwood Athletics Hall of Fame.
