Connie was an amazing mother! Worked as a cake decorated for majority of her life. She had our oldest brother Grant at a very young age and had to set him up for adoption. Thankfully he was able to find us several years ago and got to know her a little. She was so happy he did!! Connie was the neighborhood mama!! All of her kids friends called her mama. She didn't know a stranger and would do anything she could for anyone. She was very active in the F.O.E. (Fraternal Order of Eagles). She loved time with her family and friends, and watching her grandbabies grow up. She was a great pool player, loved to dance and enjoyed crocheting. She would crochet blankets for family, friends and to donate. She was a fighter and taught her kids to never give up. She was our center, our core, our home base! And we knew that no matter what, mama would be there with open arms! She was the youngest with 3 older brothers! A die hard Chiefs fan that loved to cook.
