Our prayers go out to Connie's family. I so enjoyed Connie's company she was so fun to be around and could put a smile on the face of whoever she was around. I remember when I was a young teen Mom and I would go to Sharon's house to visit Connie and Gma Mary .All you would see is those ladies sitting around the table laughing so hard that the tears would roll down there faces. Although I hadn't seen Connie in sometime I had the chance to reunite with her this past May and she had that same effect on me , she had me laughing within the first 10 minutes we were together. I hope to celebrate Connie's life by doing the same for others as she did for me. MAKE ME SMILE:)
