Their life, in the words of those who remember

The story of Darryle Conner

Darryle Conner, 32, was a member of the Rochester community whose life was cut short on November 7, 2016. Public records and official statements identify him as the person who died after a shooting near the intersection of Jefferson Avenue and Frost Avenue. Beyond those verified facts, the public record preserved by law-enforcement releases and news reports is limited in personal detail.

What is clear from the available sources is that Darryle was known to his city: his name appears in the record of a tragic afternoon when regular neighborhood routines were interrupted and a family’s life was forever changed. The Monroe County District Attorney’s Office described him as an innocent bystander who was present that day; local reporting and court documents that followed documented how his death became part of a legal process that ultimately produced convictions in the years that followed. Those official records repeatedly emphasize that Darryle was a person whose life mattered to those who knew him.

Because no published family obituary or funeral-home notice matching both his full name and the exact date of death (November 7, 2016) was located in publicly available obituary archives or funeral-home sites, the particulars of his personal life — such as birthplace, employment, or surviving relatives verified in a family-authored notice — are not available to responsibly report here. That limitation does not lessen the human reality behind the name: Darryle was a neighbor, a member of his community, and someone whose presence left an imprint on family and friends.

This remembrance page honors the person indicated in official records rather than the circumstances that ended his life. It acknowledges the pain of those who mourned him and recognizes the loss felt by his community. Where public sources do provide factual context — the date, the place, and the legal outcomes that followed — they are cited below so that readers may consult primary accounts. For family members or friends who wish to add memories, photographs, or corrections to this page, a separate family-authored notice or obituary would allow a fuller portrait of Darryle’s life to be preserved and shared.
