We just heard about Connie's passing. We were so surprised. Had we known, we would have been at the wake and funeral. She used to stop at our old house and sit on the front porch and visit with my mother and aunt. She was such a great person. Our thoughts are with the family.

I'm still in shock, but wanted to send my deepest condolences for everyone. Your Mom, my Aunt was a very special lady in so many ways. I'm going to miss our phone conversations which were most of the time silly. She always had a way of making me laugh, no matter what. R.I.P. Aunt Connie and I love you more.xoxo

Cary-So sorry to learn of your mother's passing. It is clear from looking at the photos that she was a great mother, grandmother and so very proud of you and her entire family. I can tell you from experience that there will be better days ahead when you have a moment to reflect on all positive contributions she made to your success and happiness.

Cary,
I met your Mom, in DC, when she came to visit, a couple of times. She was so sweet to all of us at Gawler's, and we all took a liking to her. She will be remembered fondly by me, and I am sure, by all the rest of us who used to work together.
