She worked as a dedicated employee of Picciotti’s Restaurant for many years. Connie loved baking her famous Italian cookies and making her sauce and sharing them with her family. She enjoyed her garden and could often be found tending to her many beautiful flowers. Connie also loved spending her birthdays at Delaware Park with her family and friends.
