When I was around 4 years old I remember being in the bathroom watching my mother putting a french twist in the back of her hair I remember thinking to myself how beautiful my mother was! I love you mom!
Connie was the best of friends. I think of her lovely sense of humor and her sense of decency. She looked for the good in everyone, and had a lot of compassion for anyone down on their luck and she never looked down on anyone. She was kindness personified. She loved her family and often spoke of them. I was out of town when she passed away and heard about it a few weeks after. I’ll miss our talks. May God grant her beautiful soul rest and peace! I love you, Connie.
