forever live in our hearts!
Communications Officer Connie K. Davis, age 65, passed away at
her home on July 20, 2017 of an apparent heart attack.

dedicated in caring for her husband during his battle with

food she shared with her co-workers...especially the huge party
trays of candies she made the entire department each Christmas.
