Uncle Connie, thank you for all you have done for me and my family. I always loved your fun sence of humor. I'm sorry I haven't been able to see more of you in these last few years. I always enjoyed our visits. You and Aunt Pat raised a great group of kids. Say hi to my parents for me. May God bless you and rest in peace.
