My sympathy goes out to Connie's family. I worked at Inland also and knew Connie very well. I enjoyed joking around with her. Due to illness in my family, I am unable to visit the funeral home. Again I am very sorry for your loss.

Shawn, I can't say enough about your mom. When I came into the family she made me feel so welcome. She was always good to me even through the changes in her life. I didn't see her often in these later years, but she will always have a place in my heart. Love you honey, Aunt Vickie

My dear mom, I cant really put into words just yet what the pain is that we are going through. Your little Anjel misses you with all her heart. I know you are not in pain no more and that you are with JJ now. That is the only thing that will give me any comfort to get through this. I have lost my best fried and I love you with all my heart.
Thank you to so many friends and family that are concerned and caring for us.
I love you mom.

I am so saddened and shocked to read that my dear classmate from the Reitz High School Class of 1965 has passed to her eternal rest. My very deepest condolences are extended to all of Connie's family. Carol and Elmer, please accept my sympathies and know that I am praying for you during this very difficult time. May GOD grant you peace and comfort.
