Not sure what to say?

Connie I cannot believe it has been two years that you have been gone. In ways it feels like yesterday but at the same time it feels like you have been gone for so long. I have missed you so much. I know your family misses you. It seems not a day goes by that Shea doesnt say something about her mother online. I understand because I miss my Mom too. Life is hard without your Mom. Love you hon and so miss you so!

Goodness Connie and I had so many moments together. I remember when we took the Girl Scout troop camping. It was a mother daughter camping trip. It also happened to be the coldest night of the year they said. We had everything we owned on, shoes included. The girls were inside our sleeping bags with us. Then of course they all had to go to the bathroom. Connie bless her soul took them all to the bathroom so we didnt have to get out of our sleeping bags. I will Never forget that! It was so...

My dear sister, heaven has just welcomed an amazing lady with a sweet smile and a loving heart. Safe in the arms of our Lord.

Connie, I will never forget the help you gave me with the Girl Scouts and how much fun we all had. I miss you and I love you so much.
