Thoughts and prayers are with all of you . Where do I begin when sharing so many fun memories of Connie. First and foremost she was a wonderful wife, mother, grandma, friend and math teacher. I have so many memories of Kurt and Connie at Grand Island Senior High school. We had so many laughs and she touched the life's of so many students.
Her most proud moments were cheering her husband and son on when they were coaching and competing in Athletics. Always there supporting Nicole in all her endeavors as well.

Connie entered the heavenly gates during such a special time of year. I am glad she is pain free and her smile and sense of humor will be some things I will treasure forever.
Rest in Peace my dear friend
