Connie grew up in Boston, MA, graduating from the High School of Practical Arts in 1942.  She worked for a photography studio and sang at the Buddies Club during WWII before she moved to Red Hook, NY. Family, friends, church, and singing were Connie’s loves. One could always see her smiling and offering her "sermon of the day” whether it was her career as a cashier for Grand Union and Stop and Shop for over 30+ years, belonging to a bowling league, singing in the United Methodist Church choir, or being a parishioner at the Dutch Reformed Church. 

A Celebration of her life will be held at the Dutch Reformed Church in Red Hook, NY on March 21, 2015 at 2 pm.
