Well Connie you know me i always wait to the last minute to do things like this because its hard to find the right words to say how much your missed.I know you are looking down from heaven and seeing Brittany as a teenager trying to grow up with all new surroundings but i think for the most part she is doing well.We are trying our best to take care of her the way you wanted her to be taken care of, in a loving and supportive way.I Love Brittany and i will not let her be hurt in any way.She is becoming a young lady and taking better care of herself these days.You know the most thing i miss about you is your crazy laugh but Brittany reminds me so much of you in so many ways and that brings back memories of you mostly everyday.I Love And Miss You Very Much!!!!!!!!Love,Doris and Bernie

wow , it's been a year , time goes by so fast. We have made it through another year but it has been so many times that I have thought of you , wanted to call you ,talk to you,laugh with you. You would be so proud of Britney. She is growing up and she seems really happy. You could not have made a better choice than Doris and Bert , they are so loving and caring and are doing a good job with Bree. I love you Beano and miss you something awful .

Dawn and Family,
I don't know how I made the mistake of writing Carolyn instead of Connie. You still remain in my prayers.

It's hard to hold back the tears when I walk down the hallway by Connie's office. Someone draped her name plaque in black cloth. We miss her so much and I think about her daily. But, it is comforting to know that she is no longer in such pain. My thoughts and prayers are with Brittany and her Family.

I have not seen Connie in years. I remember her as a child and a young adult. We were 2nd cousins. I know she's in a better place, but too young to leave this earth so soon. May God bless our family and keep us in prayer. God bless Connie's child and her siblings.

You were not my aunt, but you made me feel like you were. All the fun times that we have had in the past with water fights between Brittany, Gomer, Kevin, You and I and so many more. You know that Brittany will be taken care of and have so much love given to her throughout her life. It just won't be the same without you there when Kevin and I get married but you and everyone else who has passed will be looking down and watching us. I will miss you so very much and will never forget your laugh or smile. Kevin loves you so much and it hurts him so much to know that you won't be there to see him. Just to know that you are in a better place without having to suffer makes it a little easier but still hard at the same time. I love you Connie and I am so glad that I got to have you in my life.

Connie was a truly loving, giving, caring, thoughtful person who I will truly miss from this day forward. You lifted me up when I was down, and I hope that I did the same for you. The words that were spoken today and especially the song you picked to be played, "I'll MISS YOU" spoke volumes and will remain in my heart as will the memory of you. You did so much for others unselfishly and out of a love that mere words cannot express. Your Love for your family and especially Brittany will carry on your memory forever. I know your pain is now over and you are with your LORD, but we who are left behind are truly saddened and greiving over our loss of you. May God Bless your Family and comfort them.

My deepest sympathies for Connie's family and close friends. I knew Connie for a brief time when I worked at the Masonic Home, but she always exuded kindness and friendship whenever I saw her. She was truly a beautiful soul, who I know will be greatly missed.

Okay Its kinda hard writing this. It gets harder and harder every couple months, and it seems like my heart breaks into smaller pieces every time someone in this family just slips away. All I can think about is you laying in the bed that Saturday telling me I have the most beauitful daughtor and me joking around saying I know she gets her looks from her mother, and you telling me that i was so true, cause I'm Beautiful. I know you thought highly of the kids, I wish they could have know you longer to see how great of a AUnt you were, and to know you were a wonderful person. They'll always know how much love From their great Aunt had for them. NO words can explain how much i'll miss you and love you. I do know your no longer suffering and your with Pop And Nanny. But those of us still her, will love you always and truely miss you. I hope you know Brittany is in good hands, and NONE of us will let anything happen to her, and she'll ALWAYS be taken care of. And I hope she knows , you'll always be in her heart and you'll always be with her.

To My family : Farmer, Lord, Hall, Heck and Grove I love you guys, and we'll stay stroung for each other, cause in the end thats all we have.

Connie has touched so many lives and means so much to each one of us.
You had so many nicknames :
Gomer's Buddy ,Beano ,Conto, Sis and most importantly Mama, everyone had a nickname for you.There are so many special memoires each one of us have ,you have touched so many in your short life , it just doesnt seem fair that you had to go so soon but I know you are no longer suffering and are in heaven with your Mom and Dad.

God has not promised skies always blue ,joy without sorrow , peace without pain. But God has promised ,strength for the day , rest for the labor ,Light for the way Grace, for the trials ,help from above ,Unfailing sympathy Undyling Love
Rest in peace now Beano .
Brittany is in good hands and will be well taken care of , she has alot of Aunts and Uncles and Cousins that will look out for her .
I Love you and feel previlged to have had you in my life , you will be missed so much .To the rest of my family , I love each of you very much and I am here if any of you need me .

"Winter fades the garden now where laughter used to flower. It makes us sad to linger here the minutes seem like hours. But though we only see the loss of what we used to know, in time the warmth of memory will make the garden grow......And shades of love we thought we'd lost once again will show." My deepest sympathy to Connie's family. I hope that time and warm memories will help to ease your sadness.

Goodbye for now, my friend.

I was so sorry to hear about Connie. I met her and Brittany some years ago through my sister. They immediately became a part of our family. She would always call me and let me know when ever Jennifer and Kesha would not behave. Connie was a wonderful person and will be missed dearly.

A Song of degrees.

PSALM 121

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Peace and Blessings

What I wouldn't give to hear the words, "Whats up Player", as I'm walking down the hall. This place isn't the same, the laughter left when you did. Your memories will always be in my soul, your smile always in my mind. I will miss you forever!!!
