Connie is my first cousin. She and Rog visited us in NC for my Mom's birthday party. We in turn visited them in Grand Rapids a couple years later. I spent many summers in Detroit with the whole family. She was always so much fun to be with. Have lots of wonderful memories of the whole family visiting us on the farm in Alaska, MI. One of my favorite cousins, for sure. Barbara Veldhuis Trueblood

Connie was always busy with friends, reading by Door A and very helpful at events. I will miss seeing her each day at Sunset.
