Vicki,
I am so sorry to hear about your Mom - I know how close you both were. I remember seeing her sometimes when you & I worked in the pass office together and she was always so very nice. I lost my Dad (very suddenly & unexpectedly) in February so my heart really goes out to you and your sister because I know how much it hurts. If there's anything I can do or if you want to talk give me a call. I miss you and I'm thinking about you

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family . May you find peace in your memories and comfort in knowing that you have a special guaridan angel.

Eternal life is precious and it is one without pain. I know she will be missed but her strength and courage will not be forgotten and she will live in the hearts of those she touched and loved forever.

God Bless

We are mourning for Connie all over the world. I was so sad when I heard this news. Behind her tough exterior, Connie had one of the warmest hearts ever. I'll never forget how she used to lecture us, Vicki, when we were young and wild. Now I realize that she was always right!! She loved her family so much. Know that I am thinking of you during this difficult time. I'll never forget Connie's great smile or laugh.

Many days i call Connie at the communications center and we just talked and laugh about everything.
I always tried to sit next to Connie at the Christmas and retirement parties we always...
