I´m saddened to hear of the passing of Connie. My deepest condolences to her family.
I have so many fond memories of Connie. I worked with her at Schlage Lock. I can still hear her laughter. She used to come out to support our girls softball team at Security park and rec. l was able to meet Joe and Kathy.
I still make Connie´s famous cheese and chili dip. I was lucky enough to see Connie with Kathy once l switched to the medical field. Her family was everything to her.
My friend l can still hear you talking fifty miles an hour with that big smile. Until we meet again..

I grew up with Connie, Joe, Ken, and Kathy. We went to Bonny Reservoir for years where they taught me to water ski. We had so much fun fishing, camping, and having a good time with them. They gave their time and love over the last 50 years which i will never forget. Love you Connie! Much love and prayers to the Wetzels.
