I met Connie when I joined the Food Pantry ministry at TMBC. She was so friendly and appreciative, and a wonderful teacher, and friend. Connie was so concerned with the precious people we served. One young girl in particular became her friend. After Connie could no longer work at the Pantry, the girl always asked where "The Lady" was and said she missed her. I miss her too. Thank God for putting Connie in my life.

Tammy and Susan, you have my love and prayers on the passing of your mother. We had been friends for many years and I last heard from her on 11-19-15, the day she came home from the hospital. She told me "God is good and I am OK". This is a great statement that shows her love for her Lord and Savior. I would have loved to see her one more time, but that was not to be. Take care of yourselves and your family. I hope the future holds many blessings for all of you. Lena Langdon
