Connie will always be remembered by those who received her special caring touch. Where it was a little sister she dressed to the nines or a casual acquaintance. Connie was there to meet a need. Although we will greatly miss her we take consolation in the memories of the lives she touched. Connie was a great event planner. She always turned an ordinary day into a holiday, just by getting her loved ones together to share a meal and memories.
