Always on the go, she was forever cleaning, tidying, and making sure no one around her ever went without. She loved Sunday drives, going out for breakfast, and taking family trips, especially to Ogunquit, Maine. Above all, Connie cherished her family, and her greatest joy was spoiling her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Connie will be remembered for her endless kindness and her comforting presence. Her love will live on through her family, who will always be grateful for her.
