Connie Nunns

She was born April 1, 1940, in Cleveland, Ohio, to parents Joseph and Mary Grace (Palumbo) Trusso. Connie graduated from John Adams High School in 1959, and was the head cook for Crestwood Middle School for many years until her recent retirement.

Faith and family were paramount in Connie’s life. She began each day with Bible study and was a devoted member of the Ravenna Assembly of God. On June 3, 1961, she married her beloved husband Gene, and the couple had four children, and also raised their niece. She later cherished her time as Grammy to her grandkids.

A close third in Connie’s life was cooking. It has been proclaimed that she was the best cook in Portage County. Connie was well known for her baking and cake decorating, as well as feeding thousands of middle school kids throughout the years.

Connie is survived by her husband of 59 years Gene Nunns, her children: Grace (Graham) Harmon, Jim (Julie) Nunns, Joyce (Rich) Sebring, and her niece Kim (Trusso) Warren, her grandchildren: Gina Harmon, Evan Nunns, Aidan Nunns, Nathaniel Glenaman, and Kyle Sebring, as well as her siblings: Flo Snyderburn, “Busty” (Angie) Trusso, Rick (Shirley) Trusso, and Joe (Patti) Trusso, along with many loving nieces and nephews.

Connie was preceded in death by her parents, her infant daughter Lynn, and her sister JoAnn Bias.
