I have so many fond memories with Connie. I remember meeting her when Tri and she were first dating. She was so friendly. We raised our children together and enjoyed camping, plays, u of u football and basketball games, and music together. She did worry fiercly- every month we would get together with a group of friends for “pot luck”. She would plan her hosting and ponder over what to serve for months. She loved deeply. She asked us to look over her family, and mostly to help take care of Tri. We are committed and will lovingly fulfill her wishes. I will miss you Connie!

I only knew Connie as a fellow rider at Rebel House, but I always loved seeing her there and she made me feel like she always was truly excited to see me there, too. She remembered details about my life and always made it a point to say hello to me. It was moving to see a supportive mother come to (at least it seemed to me) practically all of her daughter's spin classes. Knowing Connie even just in passing, it was so apparent where Kassie's kindness, vitality, enthusiasm, and spirit came from, at least in part. I can only imagine what those close to her must be feeling – I was only on the fringe of her life and I still keenly feel the loss of her. I will miss her.

I was Kassies manager at Bebe long ago. During kassies time working with us - I got to know Connie alittle bit. She would come in to shop or admire Kassie here and there. One thing I know from working at Bebe - It is not what you say - it is how you make someone feel. I do not remember words Connie said - but I remember her voice and her smile / and I remember how much she Loved Her daughter Kassie, she was so proud of her- of all her accomplishments in school - the direction her life was going - Connie found Kassie to be the most beautiful girl — as she is! And I could feel the love from Connie as a mother to her beautiful daughter every moment I was in her presence.
I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I have gotten to see both ladies on social media do things together - and travel- and hit those monumental moments together - the things you dream of doing with your daughter … and I loved to see that their precious relationship endured and grew over the years. Connie is such a good example of a mother to me- and I’m just a bystander that got to know her for such a short season. That’s something to be said about the impact she had 🤍. Thinking of your family! Big hugs to you from me!

Connie had this smile that could warm your heart. She was a dear friend. I love her, she was so kind, one of the sweetest people I’ve known. We would walk around the Delta halls & laugh. She was very proud of her family, shared stories with me. The funny story I have is Connie would always ask me are my hips to big, (I would giggle ) Connie you are tiny NO !!
She touch my heart with her strength and resilience. RIP my beautiful friend.

I’ve her since we worked together at Delta in 1999, and she was just an absolute angel. Always kind, positive, uplifting, fun, and funny. She truly cared about people and always saw the best in everyone. Her beautiful daughter and family were everything to her. She had the warmest smile and just radiated kindness. She will be deeply missed.

I met Connie at a Zumba class at Skills Fitness. We would always stand next to each other in class and slowly that turned into greetings and then full on convos/spilling the tea before and after class. She’d always be full of spunk and loved to “shake her booty”. She’d regale about family travels, work drama, and the various accomplishments of Kassie (xc, Disney princess, spin instructor!). We talked many times about going mushroom foraging but unfortunately never got around to it. One of my children was dealt a major health scare so I stepped away from the gym for a time but Connie and I would keep in touch via text/social. She always checked in to see how my family was doing and cheered on my kids accomplishments like they were her own! She was so genuine and full of love to all of us lucky to be in her orbit and will be greatly missed.

I didn’t have the pleasure of working with your mom for many years at Delta Air Lines!! My memory of your mother was she always had a smile on her face and always greeted me with happiness. I am so sorry for your loss. She was a beautiful woman.
— Cindy Burnett

I met your mom for the first time at a dinner at The Spaghetti Factory. It is a core memory of mine because I enjoyed our visit so much. Your mom touched me after just a few minutes of meeting her. I can only imagine the incredible impact she had on others.
— Erin P.

Connie always made my days when she would come in for a class at Rebel with a new top that she most definitely got for a steal from TJMaxx or Marshall’s - and of course had to tell me the price! She was such a kind and compassionate person that always made my day just the tiniest bit better. I am so very sorry for you and your family’s loss. She was a ray of sunshine that we will all miss dearly
— AnnaRose

Connie saw a need a filled it willingly for so many of us that aren’t so lucky to have mothers living close - Connie gave support,encouragement, hugs, and so much love to all of us.
— Kaitlyn E.

Your mom was a bright light during my time at Rebel - whether in the studio or kindness over dm’s here - she was always so thoughtful. I feel lucky that I got to know her for a time.

Mama Connie brought so much love, light and energy at all times. She had such an amazing gift of making everyone feel loved and welcomed 🌹
— Janet R.

I always felt a deep connection to your mom. Perhaps that’s why we share a name (Connie is my middle name). She was so genuine and authentically her and I adored that about her. Not only did I have the privilege of seeing her in the studio, but she would also send me messages every so often checking in. I will miss that! I am so truly sorry for your loss and love reading all of the incredible memories you had together. Her love and admiration for you was palpable and I know you will only continue to make her proud!
— Madi H.

She really lit up the whole room. I will never forget singing Taylor Swift at the top of our lungs all together in a little bar in New Orleans. Sending all of my love ❤️❤️❤️

I only had the privilege to meet your mom a few times but it felt we’d been old friends for years! She was truly an incredible human, so full of fun, love and light.
— Jill D.

It was always such a highlight when I saw your mom in the studio. I always left every interaction with her just smiling, and feeling just a bit better about myself. She has that effect on people ♥️
— Summer P.

Connie really could light up a room 🤍 she made Rebel even more special with her energy and light. She had a true desire to see everyone happy and living their best life. It was so apparent how special of a best friend/Mother bond the two of you have, and always will.
— Jenna L.

I remember seeing your mom at Rebel and being so amazed that there are moms who showed up and supported their kids in that way. It was inspiring and I hope I can be that kind of mom as well. The love and pride she has for you was so apparent. That will never go away.
— Taylor H.

Connie had the most infectious, happy spirit! Every time I got the opportunity to interact with her she was always so kind and welcoming. She was loved by so many and loved you so deeply!
— Shannon S.

Your mom was really special to me. She had the kindest energy…so supportive, genuine, and always spreading light. This is such an incredible loss. I was going through my DMs with her… thinking about how much I’ll miss her sweet check-ins.I truly cherish my interactions with her and feel lucky to have known her. Sending so much love to you and your family.
— Andrea B.

Your mom was one of a kind, coming into rebel when I knew no one, she was the first person to introduce herself and become my spin partner. She was always so proud of you and I hope you feel her with you, always ❤️
— Whitney O.

To me Connie is a light – a kind, beautiful and radiant soul who graced the life of everyone she encountered. One of my favorite examples is how my dad lit up every time she entered the room. This was especially true in his last several years when she so lovingly helped to care for him. My dad would immediately sense her warmth and energy, becoming so happy and peaceful in her presence. This meant the world to me. Connie means the world to me, and I treasure every moment we had together. I feel so lucky that we were able to spend time together taking walks, laughing and dancing at the care center, and doing spin classes.

Kassie and Tri, I love you and Connie with all of my heart!! I pray that Connie lives on in each of you, giving you strength and guidance. I can just see her encouraging you to be strong and to have fun, and to live life to the fullest.
— Jozelyn Davis

I worked with Connie at Delta. She welcomed me so warmly in her department (IMR). She was so easy to talk to, like talking to her was therapeutic. Thank God for Connie and people like her who can talk to others so easily and make people feel comfortable. She was so kind. I made sure to keep in touch with her on Instagram long after I Delta. I’ve only really only done that with a few people, and she’s one of them. That’s how special she was. So supportive and encouraging. Connie was an amazing person
— Christa P.

I met Connie at a fitness studio in 2024. It was my first time working out in years, and I had felt a little intimidated starting a new fitness journey. Connie immediately became an inspiration for me, and welcomed me with very open arms. Her friendly personality and "you can do it" attitude immediately made me feel at home, and that I was not alone. Such an amazing soul will ALWAYS be remembered, and severely missed. Rest in Paradise Connie.
