Connor had an exceptional ability to fix anything just by looking at it. He loved being outdoors, fishing, barbecuing, and he was always willing to lend a helping hand. Connor was also an aspiring heavy-duty mechanic, and he had plans to travel the world after moving to Calgary. He was never shy about expressing his love and appreciation for them.

He was the life of the party and was always up for a good time. Ask anyone who knew Connor and they’ll likely have a funny story or memory to share. He also leaves behind his devoted and loving mother, Jennifer, a hundred friends that he called family, a loving family, including and his second family, the Bird/Husak family.

His caring and kind nature left an everlasting impact on those who were fortunate enough to know him. He had a heart of gold and was loved deeply by everyone he encountered. We are also served by our autobiographical memories as our notion of self-continuity is aided by noting how our current self is the same and different from who we were in the past.Connor’s contagious laugh and bright smile lit up every room he entered. This understanding of our current situation involves an appreciation of what typically happens to people who are members of our culture, and how our own past and current experiences are similar to and different from this typical life. Our memories also serve us by helping to better understand our current life situation through the constraints and opportunities the past has placed on us, and the direction that we would like to pursue for our future.
Such remembering of mutually experienced past experiences, or even telling friends of an experience that was uniquely one’s own, is one way in which we develop stronger friendships. In our conversations with friends, we oftentimes will share our past experiences. If you do not believe you have many involuntary memories, once you have any, jot down short descriptions of the events remembered, and you may find that they are very special! Functions of autobiographical memory Most of the time, involuntary memories are of pleasant past events and they will help boost an overall positive mood. Although they occur often, involuntary memories are so fleeting that people may not know how often they occur. They are involuntary in the sense that we are not intentionally trying to remember, these memories seemingly pop into our minds on their own. We are often flooded by these involuntary memories. Or, you may pass by a flowering tree during springtime and the scent reminds you of a similar flowering tree in your hometown. You may have been walking on campus, daydreaming, and while walking by a certain building remember a funny experience in a class that you took there. First experiences, due to their novelty, are also well remembered, which explains why this period of life stands apart in memory among older adults. These first experiences help individuals recognize their transition into adulthood and begin to shape the type of person one wishes to become. There is a novelty of experiences that happen between one’s childhood and the emergence of adulthood including such events as one’s first job, one’s first romantic relationship, one’s first college course, or one’s first concert experience. It is those years between the ages of 15 to 25 that have an advantage in being remembered best among all events that happen during life as one gets older. Remembering the transition between childhood and adulthood As noted by the topics below, everyday memory provides a richness and meaning to life.
Accordingly, students rely on memory for scholastic success, and in so doing, they may not fully recognize the value of everyday memory that occurs outside the realm of academic achievement. Fundamentally, success in college depends on how well one remembers, which can be optimized with study techniques that increase attention and understanding of course material. One’s years in college provide challenges to students who are required to learn and retain a great deal of information to perform well in courses.
