Connie was known for her kindness, giving nature and loving personality. She took care of many elderly people in the DeWitt area. Connie was frequently seen at United Manor in DeWitt caring for multiple people. She would run various errands, do housework, paperwork, etc. Connie worked at H & R Block in DeWitt before retiring. If you knew Connie, you saw how proud she was of her children and lit up when she talked about her grandchildren. She would not miss a sporting event, graduation, or birthday party for any of her grandkids. Connie also enjoyed helping coach Dad’s Club softball in Davenport with her daughter, Shelly.

Surviving are her daughters, Judi (Clarence) Meade of Davenport and Shelly Davis of Moline, Illinois; her grandchildren, Audi (Kevin Walbridge) Anderson, Rebecca (Chase Knizekewich) Meade, Nick Bertram, Samantha Meade, Kristen Bertram, and Ava Davis.
