Debbie, Scott, Jerry & Gary,
I was sad to learn your Mom passed away. She and Poppy were always so thoughtful and nice to me and my daughters. They were great parents to you kids and would do anything for you. I remember after holiday meals, your Mom would make up frozen dinners for Poppy to have whenever he wanted. They took care of each other and were there for each other all those years. You kids were blessed. I am so sorry.

Dear The Nenninger Family,
I am so sorry about Connie. She was our next door neighbor on Hickory Circle since I was born. She was always friendly and caring. I remember one day when I got stung by a bee and she came running over when she heard my screams. She took care of me. She is now with her beloved husband. May she rest in peace.

My heart goes out to Bryden, Scott and every single one of the rest of the family! Connie loved her family so much, so whenever they all got together, she was in her glory. If you want to honor her memory just create some amazing food and gather. Don't ever lose her festive nature and the traditions. I feel we were all blessed to have her with us for Bryden & Jen's wedding. Rest in Peace, Connie. You & Poppy are back together again!

Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Connie was a wonderfully caring person. I will always remember the day we moved into the house on Hickory Circle and her running over to us, so happy to see Richard!! Then she found out Paul was my uncle, she was even more happy. I wish her peace.
