For a number of years after retiring, Connie looked forward to meeting up with her former co-workers, who had become her close friends along with her cousins for lunches.
Sundays were a day for hosting family dinners at the Pelletier homestead where Connie would cook and bake all day, enjoying the company of her mother, special Aunt Cecile and Uncle Larry LaFrance amongst other guests. During the holidays Connie took great pride in baking and making several types of holiday candies.
