While my grandma Connie was still alive, she was really big on family. she loved her great grandbabies more than anything, and she had the biggest heart. She was also very strong; I honestly have never met someone that had such a strong will before. I know that I love her with all my heart and soul and I'm going to miss her terribly.

Connie loved playing Bingo and cards. She enjoyed cooking and feeding her family. She was well known for making sure you left the house full.

Connie was preceded in death by her parents, husband, William in 1998; three children, Delores Delaine, Sherry Irene, and Victor Ronald; and nine siblings.

Connie is survived by her daughter, Judy Daniels; six grandchildren, Michelle, Brittany, Tiffany, Michael, Nicholas, and Amanda; eleven great-grandchildren, and many other relatives and friends.
