Connie was a cherished neighbor. She was a kind hearted person and always watched out for all the neighborhood children. We will miss saying hello to her on her walks and all the waves from her garage chair. You are so missed Connie!
Connie was my 1st cousin. She was a beautiful and funny lady. She had a great smile and was always snazzy dresser. I have many fond memories of her growing up and her visits to our home with Troy and the kids. May she rest in peace in the house in the Lord.
My condolences to her family during this difficult time.
Sending love and prayers to this beautiful family.
Connie was one of the most amazing women to walk this earth. For over 20 years, she has been a steadfast role model in my life and has helped raise her beautiful granddaughters (my daughters). Before that, she raised her own two children into people who also both work in service roles to make the world better. Connie's strength, resilience, love of the Lord, and Mother Mary were key elements of her personality. As a role model, her life was so full, her experiences vast, and oh boy, could she tell you a story. She travelled, worked, and loved greatly. While she didn't hesitate to give advice, she was patient, kind, generous, and forgiving. I appreciated her advice (even though I didn't follow it) because I knew it was founded in her faithfulness and in love.
We will miss this kind, loving, beautiful heart. God bless and keep you, Connie, and all the family.
I will always remember the fun times growing up and spending weeks at a time with Connie, Anthony and Renaye. Going to the lake, running around the neighborhood in Huntertown playing hide and seek, playing in the back of their restaurant in Warsaw....and of course the deadly fan story! I almost lost my life to an industrial fan that caught hold of my strawberry shortcake nightgown and was pulling me in....back in that restaurant in the middle of the nite. My screaming woke everyone up. Connie rescued me, but my nightgown was shredded from my feet clear up to my neck! At the moment I literally thought I was gonna die as I was being sucked in, but we have laughed our butts off about it to this day!
So many fond childhood memories that I will cherish forever. Thank you Connie for putting up with our shenanigans and all the fun times! Ill miss you. Hope you are dancing with your Momma and playing Eucre with your Dad. I know they are welcoming you with open arms right now!
R.I.P. I love you ❤️
