As sorry as I was to hear about Aunt Connie's passing, I consider myself blessed to have known her. The visits that my family had with Aunt Connie and Uncle Billy (and, of course, my cousins, Billy and Johnny) were always marked by plenty of hospitality, humor, and love. My mother, Sally, had helped raise Uncle Billy, my mom felt maternal love towards both Billy and Connie. I smile at the thought that currently my parents and Billy and Connie (along with my cousin Billy) are all happy in Heaven right now. May God bless all saints!
