Connie lived her life like her favorite poem below. Living Life By Bonnie L. Mohr Life is not a race – but indeed a journey. Be Honest. Work hard. Be choosy. Say, “Thank you.,” “I love you,” and “Great job” to someone each day. Go to church. Take time for prayer. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh. Let your handshake mean more than pen and paper. Love your life and what you’ve been given, it is not accidental- search for your purpose and do it as best as you can. Dreaming does matter. It allows you to become that which you aspire to be. Laugh often. Appreciate the little things in life and enjoy them. Some of the best things in life really are free. Do not worry. Forgive, it frees the soul. Recognize the special people you’re blessed to know. Live for today, enjoy the memories. Crain Funeral Home and Cremation Service in Cape Girardeau is in charge of arrangements.
