At 94 years old, she was energetic and so full of life. Always playing games, Hanafuda, Scrabble, and Cribbage, to name a few.

Prayers and forgiveness was her way of LIFE. We will always cherish her SMILE and happiness in OUR hearts, for it being OUR inspiration to love each other and take care of one another because FAMILY was her LOVE, and FAITH was her strength and guidance. Love & Prayers. Rest in love Mama Connie.
