She loved birds and maintained several bird feeders so she could enjoy the many different species throughout the four seasons. When her grandchildren were young, they would all birdwatch together, reciting the names of the different birds. Dusty, her African Grey and JoJo, a Senegal parrot, gave her tremendous happiness as she took great pride in teaching them how to speak, sing songs and perform tricks. Connie was an avid Boston Red Sox fan who loved to watch their games. Although she had lived most of her adult life in New York, she was a Mainer at heart. The sounds of the waves breaking on the beaches of Maine were music to her ears.
