So very very sorry to hear of her passing. We went to school together & graduated from Denfeld. Became friends on FB & would hear from her from time to time. She was the sweetest person & was always ready to compliment friends, which she did quite often. I also knew her brother Roger well & who was also the sweetest guy to everyone. May he also rest in peace. Connie will be missed.
