When I was growing up, Connie was an interictal part of my childhood. Connie and her brother, Melvin, lived across the street from us and my days were filled with endless joy. Wonderful memories of the 1950s.

I miss my cousin. She was kind and funny. She always knew what to do and where to get things and information. I loved her laugh and her smile. She was an amazing woman.

Yesterday I made creamed corn in my crock pot and talked about Connie making corn for us for Thanksgiving dinner. I will always think of her. I loved her so much and her mom was always so good to me,
I was blessed to be her cousin.

Connie was a loving CHARACTER in
Mount Vernon. We spoke many times about the towns history. As a local historian, she added much to my research. She will surely be missed.

It was a shock to learn that Connie passed away. She always seemed so jolly and ready to help. The last time I saw her, about a month ago, was no exception. I personally and professionally feel her loss. The family and loved ones have my utmost condolences.

Connie was such a funny, wonderful person. I always enjoyed her visits at the Alexandrian Public Library. She was a wealth of information and will be deeply missed. My thoughts are with her family.

Connie will be greatly missed, she always had a smile on, and made everyone laugh. She was always there when one needed information or guidance in southern Indiana Genealogical information. Going to conferences, and Indiana Genealogical Board meeting won't be the same. My prayers are with the family at this difficult time.

I am so sorry for your loss and I cannot express how deeply Connie touched me the day I was introduced to her by my Aunt Linda. I haven't been to a craft show in a long long time and Connie took me everywhere and I had the best time of my life with her. I only had one day with her but she touch me so much and showed me what I had been missing for so long. God gave me a gift that day and I will not forget it. My heart and prayers go out to all of her friend and family.

Connie was a great person that knew so much about genealogy and willingly shared her knowledge with those starting on the journey of becoming detectives and looking for information on their families. She never missed the opportunity of meeting new friends and she didn't know a stranger. She was very knowledgeable, had a great spirit and humor and was a joy to be around. She will be missed tremendously by the many people she knew. Chris Hoehn (Mt. Vernon)
