I remember the day ma Connie took me and Brandi to but our first sir mix alot cassette tape oh boy we were so excited! I don't think I will ever forget the smile on her face and the evil laugh when we cranked it up in the van on the way home, yes the evil smile was because she rolled down the windows and started singing the song VERY loud down main street oh my were we so embarrassed! Connie however had a yell that we all knew we were in trouble well except Chuck only because we had locked him in the pet taxi and tipped him upside down! All in all she was a great person (also made the best stir fry around) so will be missed by many! She could put a smile on anyone's face in a matter of seconds. RIP Ma Connie
