She will be dearly missed as a mother and grandmother. She was a friend and always had words of advice for me. I will miss you Connie.
She was my friend, mother and partner in crime. We had some crazy stories and situations that we all would gather and laugh about. My heart is broken into an unrepairable amount of pieces without you. Your laugh, heart and spirit is what let everyone know things would be ok. I love love love you to the moon and back Mom . I miss you and always “Son”

My condolences to you and your family!! Many prayers & hugs as well!!
My heart broken forever. People tell me that in time the pieces will eventually come back together. If this is true, though hard to believe now, there will always be a space, The piece to which has your name on its place. Tears have been falling now for so long. When I think of your beautiful face, it all seems so wrong. You had so much to look forward to and so much left to do, But God needed somebody in heaven who is as special as you. Nothing is the same now, and I doubt it ever will be. You have been released from pain and suffering; you have been set free. Your story has touched people, all ages, near and far. On the night you were taken from us, in the sky was a lone twinkling star. Was that you to tell us that you had reached home now? And from life as we knew it, it was time for you to take your final bow. I miss your voice, your infectious laugh and hearing you try to sing. Fashon you loved, and now you have new accessories - a pair of angel's wings. The world has lost a wonderful girl, a true and amazing friend. But maybe her goodness was needed to help and from heaven she needed to send. You are always around us, engulfing us with your love, Giving us strength, keeping us close, and watching over us from above. Love you forever and always Connie until we meet again..
Condolence to the entire family. Connie was a sweet woman with a heart of gold. I'll keep yall in my prayers

Many memories of your mother flood my mind and heart!!! We are here for you and hope you find the strength to celebrate her beautiful life!!! We will miss you Mama Connie!!!
I blink and I think about you and I see you. Hardest thing I ever had to deal with is you not being here
Still hard to accept the fact that you’re gone, that I wasn’t in the same state. You told me you’d see me when I got back from Florida. If I knew that would be my last hug I’d ever get from you. I would’ve cherished it longer. I miss you mom. You were the best human being I knew. I’ll continue to grow and live my life in your image. I’m going to make you proud mom. I love you so much.
