Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by a stillborn son, her second husband Paul Rutten, in laws Fredrick and Ursula Rutten, also Donald and Erdine Selle, and a brother in law Richard Rutten.

It was Connie's wish to have private services for her family. A public Celebration of Life will be held at the Hitching Post Bar and Grill in Weyauwega (E5646 Lakeshore Drive) from 1 – 6 p.m. on Saturday, February 23, 2019.
