My husband and I went to grade school with Connie. She was a beautiful, kind person even as a child. I remember spending the night with Connie and every time, she would pull out these beautiful nightgowns with jackets!! Light pink, light yellow, light blue. She would let me wear one to bed and pick out the color that I wanted. Wow! I also remember her Pug dogs. They had the worst breath but were soooo cute. Connie just loved them. In high school we didn't hang out as much but always kept our connection. Connie stood out in the crowd and was very loved. We were lucky to have known her. I have such fond memories of Connie. The whole family is in our thoughts and prayers.
