May her soul Rest in Peace
Dear Nicole and family, Danielle, Matilda and all the family,
Edna and I are devastated at the passing of Connie. Apart from being Edna’s hair dresser for more than 30 years, she was indeed a very loved friend of our family. She gave our grand daughter her first hair cut and was so very loving! She was beautiful, kind, caring and generous, ever ready to help in whatever way she could. Her top priorities were her two girls – she thought the world of them – and rightly so – there couldn’t be a prouder mother!
Though grief stricken, and the fact that we will miss her immensely, we are happy in the thought that she is with the Lord, with her mom and dad and all her deceased relatives. She had a hard life here on earth, the Lord saw that and, in His wisdom, decided to give her soul eternal rest, happiness and peace. No doubt she will be watching over her two girls and her six grandchildren whom she loved and adored!
Rest in peace Connie, we miss you but are happy that you suffer no more! Until we meet!
Edna and Al.
Rest In Peace beautiful Connie – you touched so many with your kindness. May you dance with the Angels in God’s Heavenly home now🙏
To our beautiful aunty Connie. We remember today and always what a special aunty you are. I will never forget the first time that we travelled to Canada and I met you. And the very first thing you said to me was ‘oh my god your so beautiful you look just like me when I was young’ . It really made me laugh and I will never forget it. Mum always said to me how much I was like you. I wish that I could be there to have seen you and told you that I love you. I wish that we didn’t live so far away and that I could be there to say goodbye and give Danielle and Nicole a big hug. I wish for so many things. But for now I wish for you to be at peace and for your pain to be gone. You will always be in our hearts. You will always be special to all of us. Love you aunty Connie all my love forever Carol xxx
It is with shock and a heavy heart that I read today of Connie’s passing. My condolences to all her family. I believe she loved country music. On the rare occasions we met at functions, she was always smiling and had a caring word. She will surely be missed by her family and clients. May her soul rest in peace.
Nicole, Danielle and family, May God give you strength and courage to bear your loss. May Connie’s soul Rest In Peace.
We are shocked to hear this sad news. Rest in peace dear Connie. Our deepest sympathies to your daughters, your beloved grandchildren and all your family. We grieve with you over the loss of a kind soul with a beautiful spirit and an extreme inner strength together with a strong will to do all she could for those around her. Connie, you brought so much beauty to this world with your creative talent and you will surely continue to do so as an Angel in Heaven.
Edgar and I will miss your sweet greetings and memories of happy days in Nairobi.
Connie was my friend and hairdresser for 40 years and every milestone in my life was preceded with a visit to Connie. She was a kind, beautiful soul who greeted everyone with a smile and was always interested in what was happening in our lives. Connie, we have laughed and cried together. I can’t believe you have left us and know you will be greatly missed. I pray that you are at peace now. My condolences to Nicole, Danielle, Matilda and families.
Nicole and Danielle: A mother’s place can never be filled, and her loss will be with you forever. But her memories should be treasured and her life celebrated for the amazing woman she was.
Rest in peace dearest Connie. I cannot believe that you have gone – so vibrant and always smiling.
You were good friends of Louis (my late husband) and myself and we always enjoyed your company.
Jesus will take care of you now.
Elma Da Costa

We fondly remember the times when we were neighbours in Ngara, Nairobi opposite the Maternity Hospital. Those were the young schooling days. You always had a smile on your face.

To Connie’s Beloved Family
We are grieving with you today as we read the shocking news of Connie’s death. Seems so surreal. Connie did my hair for my wedding and that’s how long we have known her and her beautiful sister Matilda and the family. Connie had an ever ready smile, an easy laugh, was kind and generous. Heaven has a new Angel, while we have lost a dear friend. She was part of our Go-Train family and I am sure all of us are remembering all the jokes, laughs and stories we shared every morning and grieving a dear friend and talented hair-dresser. God bless her surviving family and give them great courage to bear this sad loss. Connie will be dearly missed and never forgotten.
Nicole, Danielle & families, my deepest condolences on the loss of your Mom and sister. Connie may have been my hairdresser for many years but, much more than that, she became my friend. She was always so full of life and had such a wonderful sense of humor. Her patience and caring towards her clients was second to none.
Your Mom was so proud of you girls and all that you have accomplished and she was especially joyous of her grandchildren. Treasure the great memories and may they sustain you all through this sad time.
I know that she is free of pain and suffering now but I will truly miss her special brand of humanity, her beautiful soul gone too soon.
May she Rest in Peace.
Our deepest sympathies to Connie’s family. I agree with everyone you were a “very special” person and made everyone feel special too. You always had a beautiful smile and a hug for everyone. I will miss you like everyone and will cherish the moments we had together. I always left you place happy with the way you did my hair, no one could do it like you. Rest in peace Connie.
Love Shaun and Marian
Lovely, beautiful Connie. You Always greeted everyone with a huge smile and HUG. Your love of dancing showed and you sparkled.
You made many woman beautiful and now your beauty will be rays of sunshine to your family.
Rest in Peace… with my Mum…

I fondly remember when I was in university, my dad (Felix) took me to Connie’s salon to get my hair tips dyed.

Connie was indeed a wonderful person. My deepest condolences to the family.

Thank you for your beautiful smile and your simplicity.
You will be missed by your lovely family and your beautiful children and grandchildren.
My condolences to all the family.
Rest In Peace.
To Nicole, Danielle and Connie’s beloved family.
We will miss and cherish memories of our beautiful friend. She always had a warm smile, and kind gentle ways. She had an incredible desire to do good in the community with her unforgettable fashion shows and benefit functions. What an inspiration and incredible lady! There is so little one can say when you’ve lost a loved one who was so very dear!
Connie our glamour gal; never shied away from a camera; a social butterfly. You lived and breathed “customers first”; sometimes to the point of neglecting your own health. You were loved by so many.
If it wasn’t for you, introducing me to your brother, Johnny there would be no Jacelyn—who you loved and often said “God sent to you”. Bea, my sister, like you shared a love for jewelry. So Bea wore a pair of earrings you had given her years ago, in your memory. I don’t think you realize how many lives you touched. We love you and will miss you.
We pray that you are cradled within the folds of St. Joseph’s Holy Cloak and your soul finds rest and peace.
Got this cute little forward last night of a little 2 yr old child singing God will take care of you … wish I could share but … remembered how much you would have LOVED that. Miss you Connie and will continue to cheerish all our happy memories and countless laughs together.
REST NOW MY SWEET, GOD WILL DEFINITELY TAKE CARE OF YOU!!!!
Prayers continue for you and your entire family.
B🌹💖🙏
Deeply sorry to hear of Connie’s passing. Her jest for life and cheerful disposition will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her daughters and family and hope that the happy memories will help them cope at this time.
Dear Mathilda, Connie’s girls and the family of Connie,
Please accept our humble but heartfelt sympathies on the loss of Connie.
Dear Nicole & Danielle,
Jonas and I were shocked to hear of Connie’s passing and very sad that we were not in Toronto to bid her farewell. We did however participate in the livestream Mass. We know Connie will rest in eternal peace with her Maker.
Connie earned the love and respect of many who knew her as a warm, hardworking and fun loving person.
Since 1982 I followed Connie from salon to salon and finally had a standing appointment with her at 7 am every Saturday. I will always remember that after she’d done my hair, she would call you from downstairs to make sure you were up and ready to go for your French tuition classes.
She was very proud of you both and doted on her grandchildren. It made her very sad that she was unable to enjoy them these past couple of years.
Dannielle, Nicole and family, I am sorry to hear the sad news of Connie’s passing away. She was a very caring and helpful person.
May her soul rest in peace.
Dear Nicole and Danielle,
Please accept our heartfelt sympathy on the loss of your darling mum.
Our heart goes out to you both, Connie’s siblings and family at this time of sorrow.
Hearing the news, I immediately felt the loss of a wonderful, kindhearted, fun loving individual; your precious Mum.
She was a treasure and
was so proud of the women you both had become. Her grandchildren were a joy to her.
Stay strong and keep the beautiful memories of your mum alive as you go down this path.
You’ll are in our thoughts and prayers. Sending hugs.
Our sincere condolences to Filu , Mathilda Johnny and all the family. Fondly remember memories of days when we were neighbours in Nairobi and Connie I was honoured to be your bestman. I will always remember you for your radiant smile and your caring attitude.
When My sister Mila was extremely ill you made a special effort to fly to England for just three days because as you said you just had to see her one more time.
Rest in peace Lovely Connie you are the new star in the heavens.
We have a wonderful hope of living forever in perfect health with our loved ones who passed away on this very earth very, very soon as recorded at John 5:28,29. Yes, no more pain, sorrow nor death…..Revelation 21: 4,5.
Aunty Connie, we will really miss you warm smile and caring way. I have fond memories of staying with you when I was young and then visiting again nearly 20 years later. You will be dearly missed by family, friends and those that knew you.
Connie was indeed a kind, loving and generous individual with a dazzling smile. She will be missed.
Heartfelt condolences to the family. May the happy memories give you comfort at this difficult time.
May her soul rest in peace.
