Connie Marie Lopez (Schwartz)

August 21, 1965 – December 21, 2020
Connie was taken from us tragically from a brain aneurysm. Connie lived her life to the fullest. She enjoyed fishing with family and friends, poker, cards with her sister posse, and spending time with her beloved husband, children, and grandchildren. Connie always had a smile on her face and was a great friend to many. She was a long time employee of Boston Scientific where she was known for her knowledge and outgoing personality. Connie will be greatly missed by all. Connie is survived by her loving husband of 33 years, Mark; her children, Jolene Reinke (Ryan), and Bill (Josie); grandchildren, Chance, Rainee, Hazel, and Kai; father, Al Schwartz; brothers and sisters, Pat (Sandy), Darlene (Steve), Julie (Andy), Joe (Jan) and Bob (Amy), and “the other sister” Diane; many nieces and nephews, cousins, special friend, Sherry, and many other friends and relatives. Connie is preceded in death by her mother Caroll Schwartz. Celebration of life will be organized in spring/summer of 2021 and will be announced on social media. In lieu of flowers please send donations to the American Lung Association. (Published in the Pioneer Press on December 27, 2020)
