I am so sorry Dawn, I saw you earlier this week in the Shopko doorway. I checked the citizen for your mom''s obituary but couldn''t find it. So I just remembered you told me the service would be at this funeral home. I know it is a little late, and I really did mean to come give my condolences to you in person. Please keep her in your heart with all the great memories moms leave upon us. Remember what I said about her being able to contact you with her loving thoughts. Anytime you dream of her ...she is there. She knows when you think of her. I am so sorry hon. Call me if you would like to talk sometime. You got my number that day at Shopko. You and your family are in my prayers. Love ya, Audrey

Dawn, I watched the video tribute and it was great! I thought you said your mom never liked having her picture taken! It looked like she loved it and the camera loved her. You are in my thoughts and prayers take care and I will see you soon.

Steve, Dennis and Dawn, We only had the pleasure of knowing Connie for the past three months. Although we didn''t have allot of time to get to know each other, she welcomed us into her circle of friends. She often spoke about her family, especially her kids and grandkids. You are all so lucky to have had such a wonderful wife and mother. All of you will miss her dearly but her memories will keep her alive in your hearts. All our prayers and thoughts are with all of you through this difficult time. Love to you all, Rick & Lori
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
