Donavan Conner

April 26, 1999 ~ July 26, 2022

On July 26, 2022, Donavan Nathaniel Blake Conner left this earthly world at the age of 23. Donavan was born in Maury County on April 26, 1999, to Terri Adkins and the late Jeremy Conner.

Anyone who knew Donavan knew he was a fun natured, always joking around kind of guy. He enjoyed playing games and pranks on those he loved. He was also very well known for his love of all sports. Donavan was always there to cheer on his favorite teams. When he wasn't on the sports field or working, he enjoyed fishing at his grandfather's and grilling out for family meals.

Donavan also had a very loving and caring side. He took pride in taking care of his family and those close to him. Even after he was no longer here, he continued his giving nature by being an organ donor to help those in need. While his infectious smile will be missed by so many, part of him will always carry on in those that received his last gift.

Donavan is survived by his mother Terri Adkins and her significant other, Terry; stepmother, Heather Conner; sisters, Destiny Conner, Savanna Conner, Hailey Bowen, Jazalyn Conner, and Embry Conner. He also leaves behind to cherish his memory his grandparents, Mike and Debbie Adkins, Jimmy Conner, and Peggy French, and his fiancé, Makayla Hurst.

Along with his father, he was preceded in death by his grandfather, Eddie Minyard; grandmother, Brenda Conner; and great grandparents, Mina Patterson, Vannie Kilpatrick, Harless Conner, Louise William and Helen Garrett.

Visitation with family and friends was held in the chapel of Adair Funeral and Cremation Services on Monday, August 1, 2022. Funeral services were Tuesday, August 2 at Blondy Church of God with burial at Downey Cemetery. Bro. Rick Stevens officiated.
