Obituary of Connie Kristine Andersen
Connie Kristine Andersen, 70, of Spotsylvania county passed away peacefully in her home under the care of her loving family on May 21, 2024. Connie was born and raised on a farm in Milbank, South Dakota that left her with many warm memories and a strong constitution to handle life’s challenges. As a child a virus damaged one of her heart valves and resulted in the need for continuous cardiac care throughout her life including two open heart surgeries as well as a stroke that she fully recovered from. Her resilience through the years as she managed her chronic illness and maintained a fulfilling life which included loving on her 10 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren is admirable. Connie was firm in faith and always leaned on the Lord in times of trouble as well as praised him for her many blessings. She found comfort in knowing she would go home to Jesus and join her daughter Angela, her brother Roger and her sister Peggy. She had a positive outlook on life and could be counted on to give you the shirt off her back if you were in need, or to crack a joke to lift your spirits when you were down. Her kind spirit and compassion was showered on all that were lucky enough to call her family or friend. Left to cherish her memory are her beloved children, Raymond McKnight, Amanda McKnight and Thomas Andersen as well as her siblings Juanita Larsen, Don Christensen, Gloria Sprung and Lowell Christensen as well as many other family and friends. A celebration of her life will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday June 8th, 2024 at Mullins & Thompson Funeral Service, 1621 Emancipation Highway, Fredericksburg, VA 22401. Family will receive friends from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturday June 8th at the same location. A very special thank you to Mary Washington Hospice for providing excellent care and compassion not just to Connie but to our family as well. Your team circled around us to meet all of her needs including nursing, social, pastoral and music therapy making the last days of her life enriched.
