My sympathy to you on the death of Connie. I remember how excited my mom would get when Connie and Marcella would come to visit us in Pelican Rapids. I am the daughter of Sis Hanson Nelson, one of Connie’s cousins.
Again please accept my sympathy.

Dodgeville wiSorry I couldn’t make it. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I have fond memories of visiting grandpa at his insurance office and him letting us “drive” around Hillsboro in his truck. I always thought he was pretty cool to let his very, very, young grandkids take a turn steering the wheel as we tootled around town.
He will be missed.
Love, Shannon
