I will miss you Aunt Connie. You could always make me chuckle whether it was something you said or some crazy thing you did. While we are all sad to say goodbye, our family's angels will be waiting for you with open arms. Boy oh boy....Heaven doesn't know what they're in for! Love you, Deanna.

Bernie and family
I'm so sorry for your loss. We are out of town and will regrettably on be able to attend on Saturday.
My most fondest memories are of sitting in the kitchen at your house so many years ago and had the greatest conversation with Carlene on many occasions. I treasure those moments with her. She was just simply a great person. May God guide you with her in your hearts as she would want you to do.
With our respects,
Kim & Connie Salmon
