Connie, you were Mother at LCP. You were Queen of Record Clerks. The stuff you did keeping records with no electronics. I use to make you laugh so hard, telling you how bad your son was. I had a stake body work truck and we did many things. Connie you were the brains of the office, but love the County Picnic in the Park. You stayed away from me as I was the Watermelon Man. You will be miss. This was only one Connie Kaufman.. Will miss you. Rest In Peace.
Love

My deepest sympathy on Connie’s passing. My name is Bob BODNAR and I worked with Connie at the jail. As a young 26 year old lieutenant on the evening shift in 1980, Connie was always open to a call at her home in sorting out some bail or commitment paperwork that I was confused over. When Connie left the jail to go to the courthouse, she was still a valuable resourse to square away court sentencing sheets that we could not read. Warm, polite and with a fun chuckle, Connie was always a delight to work with. God bless her soul. Our prayers go with you and your familly. Bob & Deb BODNAR
