Connie is survived by her devoted daughter, Shelly Green and her husband, Norm; her son's Michael Kwiek and his wife, Ginger; Nick Kwiek; and Jeff Kwiek and his wife, Laura. Connie's sister, Marian Guillen and her husband, Thomas, share in the loss of a sibling who was not only a sister but also a best friend. Her six amazing grandchildren, who were the light of her life, will forever cherish the memories created with their beloved grandmother.
Connie's life was one of dedication to her family and community. She embraced her role as a homemaker with grace and created a nurturing environment for her loved ones. Her commitment to her faith and community was evident through her active membership in the Ladies Circle with the Catholic Community of St. Jude church, where she formed lasting friendships and served with unwavering faith.
Connie's love for animals was another defining aspect of her life, as she cared deeply for her dogs and cats, each of whom was a cherished companion.
The world was a better place for Connie's presence, and her spirit of generosity, love, and joy will continue to inspire those who knew her. As we say goodbye to Connie L. Kwiek, we celebrate a life beautifully lived and a heart that gave so much to so many. Her legacy of love, family, and faith will endure in the hearts of all who known her.
