Connie lived her life to the fullest. She enjoyed traveling, winters in Florida, camping and long talks with her family on the front porch. She adored animals, especially her beloved cat Opie. Connie was a friend, a mother, a grandmother and a beautiful wife. She loved her family immensely and was very proud of each of them. She was the glue that held her family puzzle together and though that piece of puzzle is missing, her ray of light will forever shine. She will be deeply missed by everyone that was a part of her life. Goodbyes are not forever, goodbyes are not the end, they simply mean we’ll miss you until we meet again.
