The Walkway will have a kite-shaped area and will connect our tennis courts, picnic area, playground, and swimming pool. Connie would have loved being in the middle of all this activity!

I am so sorry to hear of Connie dying. Although we have not kept track of each other over the years. I have treasured her friendship. She stood by me when the going got rough. I have thought of her often and just neglected to contact her. Cold you pass this on to her family. Reta L . Griffin (Daugherty)
Reta,
Thank you for the caring words. I know she often wondered where you were and hoped you were doing well. You two had many good times together too as well as the down times.
God Bless,
With love,
Geraldean (May) Walker
