Most of Connie's career was spent working as an RN. She's an avid reader, Griz fan, grandkid sports cheerleader, and enjoys British and Australian tv dramas. Connie grew up in Butte and we love her story about learning to knit: "When I was 10 years old my friend Carol and I were allowed to take the bus from the 'flats' in Butte and go all the way to Hennessy's Department Store in Uptown - quite an adventure for two young girls in the 1960's. Our teacher, Joan, was a very sweet English lady. Classes were held in the mezzanine, which was also the home of the BOOK DEPARTMENT! We would knit until noon; we went to Gamers to have lunch, then wander in and out of shops til 3:30 when it was time to hop on the bus and head home."
