She knew a thing or two about football as well. Very sorry for your loss Jim. Everyone at Teradyne remembers Connie - and your nurse :-). She was always a pleasure to see and talk to. She will be missed even by those who only knew her a little. Take care and God Bless !!! All will be well.

To Jim and Family,
I am sorry to hear of Connie's passing my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I remember Connie from my ASQ days – her smile, her willingness to help anyone and just listening will be missed. May your memories of all the wonderful times you shared with Connie bring peace and comfort to your family, today and always.

May your hearts be filled with special memories with Connie. I am thankful to have known her for a short time when I was a child.. She had such a kind, gentle manner with me when I was a kid and her intelligence was aspirational for me in school.

Saddened to find out Connie has left us too early. Her dedication and thoughtfulness was much appreciated as she led the Minnesota Section of ASQ and many years of support in a variety of positions.

Jim and family, you're in my thoughts and prayers.

Mike
