Connie was a beacon of creativity and warmth, known for her skilled hands and entrepreneurial spirit. Her talents knew no bounds, as she expertly crafted beautiful arrangements at her florist shop in Macedon, stitched together clothing and quilts with love, and adorned loved ones with her handmade jewelry and pins. Her passion for life extended to her love of bingo, where she found joy in every game.
