Connie Sue was best friend in high school and then reconnected 40 years later like a day had never passed. She was indeed a best friend who I miss forever. Connie Sue always carried her family in highest thoughts and love. God bless - her memory is true to all who loved her.

My aunt was such a treasured soul. She was always there for all of us when we needed her. She used to introduce me to everyone as her daughter and treated me like one to after my mother passed. We would have sleep over's and pull all nighters together. We would talk for hours, bake, make crafts or just go for walks. She took me into her home when I was in a bad relationship. She put up with me and stood by me with my during times I was making unwise decisions and never judged me. Thank you Aunt Connie for always loving me no matter what. My mother, aunt, and friend.

May all that have been touched by the life of Connie Runyon never forget this wonderful woman. A small framed lady with a big heart and the strength to fight this deadly disease as long as she could. I think she would say "cry not for me for now I am free". God bless her family in these tough times.
