Connie has been my "best buddy" since I met her in the park across from Department of Commerce at lunchtime way, way back in 1970. We did so much together through the years. She was always there for me. She was my bridesmaid in my wedding. She was there or close by when my boys were each born, and she was there for support when my husband was sick with cancer and died. We did alot of fun trips together--a cruise to the Caribbean, a trip to Arizona, trips to Florida, a trip to Rhode Island, and a wonderful trip over to France. She was my partner in crime at Kohl's (Oh, buy it--it looks great on you!). And we had a great time hitting all those "chick flicks" that were only worth seeing once, if that! But lunch was always good! Occoquan was always fun, especially all the craft shows we hit through the years. Lots of jewelry, watches and purses were collected there! I don't know what I will do without Connie in my life. I am so thankful she has been a wonderful part of it. Her memory will continue on my heart and in all lives she touched. Connie, I will deeply miss you, my friend. Until we meet again, my friend, all my love. Lee
