My father, who recently passed away, was at Summer Breeze briefly and I was so touched to see that Mrs. Sharpley 's family, especially her grandchildren were constant visitors there, helping her eat, doing her hair, tucking her in at night. It did my soul good to see the love they had for her. It was certainly a testament to the way she raised her family. Please know that although I don't know your family you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Wishing you all Peace.

Connie was my dearest friend for 50 years and Aunt Connie to my sons, Joey and Neal Morrison, and she will be terribly missed. Losing someone we love is nothing easy but knowing that we have been a part of the life of that person, we can realize that we are blessed to have been able to share in her life before she went to rest in eternal salvation. After the tears have dried and goodbyes have been said, all we will have to hold onto are the happy memories that we have shared with this loved one. They will be kept alive in my heart and my mind and treasured. I love being Aunt Maggie to her family. Connie was a blessing to all. Maggie and Harold McLendon
