Connie Lynn (Conger) Richardson

Connie Lynn Richardson, 73, passed away June 3, 2022, in Fort Smith, surrounded by family. She was born August 26, 1948, to Delbert Conger and Lela Colombo Conger. A nearly lifelong resident of Fort Smith, Connie had an extensive career as a registered nurse at St. Edward’s Mercy Medical Center. Her youthful heart was evident in her silly sense of humor and easy laugh. Connie was progressive minded and had a deep appreciation for the spiritual and mystical. An artistic streak shone through in her sketches and her love for singing.

Connie was a loving mother to her daughters Emily Toffelmire (Garret) and Amy Toffelmire (Aldrin), and her son William McCann (Dinora), as well as a proud grandmother to William, Lucy, and Sara. She also leaves behind life partner Lance Richardson, mother-in-law Martha O'Neal, brother-in-law Curtis Richardson, and nieces Kim Malone and Krista Malone-Foster.
