I met Connie when I first moved to Morgantown in 1982. We became friends and she was like a mother figure to me. Connie moved her store to Pleasant Street in 1985. When I would come to downtown, I would always visit her in her Mini-Mart. In 1986, I bought her the single 'Morning Desire' by Kenny Rogers. She was very pleased I did that. I haven't seen her in years, and have only learned of her passing recently, but I will miss her friendship. Rest in peace, my friend. --Glenn Gallagher
