Connie Porter

So sorry Danny and family. God bless you all.

During one of Connie's hospitalizations ( it may have been her hip replacement) she wasn't allowed to eat anything so we made labels reading "pizza", "popcorn", "orange julius", "cheeseburger"," french fries," etc. and stuck them on her IV bags.

I am so glad to have known Connie for many years. She was unintentionally instrumental in getting me into conducting hymns in sacrament meeting, as she gave me opportunities to fill in for her more than two decades ago. As I saw Connie in later years (at my dad's funeral and when I ushered for general conference) she always had a big hug for me. She was a great person in so many ways!

Danny, How can we say how much we love you guys and how sorry we were to hear of Connie's passing. There is no way to pick out just one experience with you guys, there are so many precious and sacred times we've had together. Thank you for all the things you've taught me and your patience you had for a head strong counselor. Your friendship is forever cherished. We'll see you soon. Love ya, Don and Pat Barton

I actually knew Connie and her sister Mary from high school we were in the high school play together. All the time I knew Connie out here in West Valley. She was always very ill. There were multiple times. We really thought she was going to die. I headed up a group of sisters that made a quilt for Connie and all of us embroidered our name on that quilt. There was probably maybe 80 or more sisters names on the quilt. I know that meant a lot to Connie and it meant a lot to me to present that to...
