He graduated from The University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana in 1955. After graduating college, he spent two years in the Finance Corps of the US Army.

After a long career, first in the moving and storage business and then in real estate, Connie and Marge retired to Cape Cod, where they spent nearly 20 happy years before moving to Hingham, Massachusetts.
A devoted Catholic, Connie loved his family and he derived great enjoyment giving back to others. He did so with numerous organizations in Greenwich including the Rotary Club and serving on the Board of Directors of Nathaniel Witherell. On Cape Cod, he continued his volunteer efforts as a member of the Rotary Club, through activities with his church and as a driver for Meals on Wheels. He greatly enjoyed being a Volunteer Ranger at the National Sea Shore, and loved leading tours, meeting people and sharing his love for the history of the region. An avid boater, he loved fishing and being on or near the water.

He is survived by his beloved wife Marge, his son Robert McCarty, his daughter Mary McCarty Manning (Sean), his nephew and God son, James Gannon (Nicole), his niece Laura Gannon Turner (Michael), and 14 grand and great-grandnieces and nephews.
