Connie was the eldest of four children. She took pride in being the big sis. She thought she was grown when only a teen, and did give her parents worries from time to time. Truth be told, she was really a good daughter who just wanted to rush growing up. One way of growing up fast to her was to marry when only sixteen. Even though she was young, being a wife and mom of two children was something she was able to accomplish. Connie worked hard in numerous occupations, was a friend to many people, had a great heart, and helped others to get ahead when possible. Our family said she was sometimes generous to a fault. This is just the way she lived her life! Family was at the top of her list and she loved deeply. Making sure the family always had an advocate by their side when needed was important. Nothing stood in her way when something had to be taken care of. We were all fortunate to have her in our lives, all in all we think it was a life well lived even with struggles along the way. She will be missed by all of us. Until we meet again may our memories of her fill our hearts and minds.
