I miss her! I will never forget her sitting up to my Dad's bar at my parent's home having their before dinner cocktail. She always had a gift for my young son, something to make him happy as she walked in the door.

Dear Mueller Family,
Having known most of you and your Mom and Dad quite well during high school, I am so sad to learn of your dear Mom's passing. She was a very classy and kind lady, and a beautiful human being whom we were all lucky to know. Thanks for sharing her with me for a time during our high school years. She contributed so much for so long, and was the very role model of a rich and happy life, along with your dear Dad of course. I send my deepest sympathies, but also co-celebrate with all of you her amazing life! Best as ever, Cat Myser

We are deeply saddened to hear of Connie's passing. We have missed seeing her on Marco for the past several years and always remember her as we pass by the places she lived and the Marco Island CC. She was an incredibly kind and generous woman and a wonderful friend to our mom. We all loved her very much. We have made a donation in her name to the Sisters of St. Joseph Ministries Foundation.

Dear Mueller Cousins,
I have so many wondrously fond memories of your Mom, my Aunt Connie. Among them. She was always so welcoming, gracious and generous when we visited Saint Paul-Minneapolis. She cared for me when, as a child, I cut my foot on your little, children's sailboat. She offered that, instead of a doctor, Uncle Al could stitch the wound when he returned from work. She and Uncle Al hosted me at their Boston hotel in 1972 when I returned from Beirut. Sometime around 1987 I had dinner in St. Paul with Uncle Al, Debbie and another daughter whose name, regrettably, I have forgotten. Uncle Al and Aunt Connie were planning a trip to Hong Kong. Being then-familiar with Hong Kong and its shopping opportunities from having recently lived there, I offered to sell to Uncle Al my list of where to shop (jewelry, furs, antiques, etc.) so he could keep it away from Aunt Connie. He did not immediately answer, so I turned to Debbie and asked how much Aunt Connie would pay to have the list. A deal was never struck. I hope they had a memorable Hong Kong vacation. And finally, in 2000 at my father's, your Uncle Francis', funeral when my daughter broke down and was sobbing, it was Aunt Connie who cradled her, held her in her arms and tenderly comforted her.
Dear Aunt Connie, so blessed and so loved, be now with God, your husband Al, your son Mark and your daughter Debbie.
With much sympathy,
Mely and Paul Mueller

Keith, Danny, Scott, Todd, Craig, Connie, Julie. What a great 95 years your mom had. I remember 15 vivid years between 1970 and 1985 on Park Avenue and then Dellwood. Great neighborhood sleepovers in forts made from lawn chairs and blankets. We´d wake up and your mom would have breakfast ready for all of us. Soucheray´s, Zaks, Leidl,s and the rest of the neighborhood. Swan might even show up. 10 or 12 kids, plus dogs and anyone else. Pancakes and eggs for all. She always had a smile. She Shouted as loud as anyone during a Vikings game. And was never shy when it came time to send us home. I have nothing but fond memories. God bless you all. I know she is smiling with your dad right now. Thanks for the memories!

To My Mueller Family Cousins

I just heard from my brother Charlie that Aunt Connie passed last week. My memories of Aunt Connie are indeed reminiscent of so many good times when we traveled to Minnesota for summer vacations. They continued later when we would visit Al and Connie at Marco Island for spring break back in the 1990s. Connie is/was such a gracious lady and loving aunt to my brothers and sister and we are so sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers for all of you as you celebrate Connie´s life. Peace to you all.

Dear Mueller family,

Connie was a shining star every day of her life. Her smile warmed you and she exuded a bright spirit.

What a joy she was in my life. The Yacht Club ladies locker room will never be the same!

Much love,

Please accept my deepest sympathies on your loss I remember your mom with great fondness as I was growing up at Sacred Heart. She was a lovely woman and a great encourager. I was privileged to know her in later years when she and my mom worked on projects for St. Thomas Academy.
