Connie Lynn Rex was a childhood friend of mine when we lived next door to each other on Woodlawn Street when we were in grade school. She was a great playmate and the first girl I ever kissed when we were toddlers. She was taken from us far too soon on 10 Aug 2007, only 63 years old. We grew apart in our High School Days, but I will always remember her from those childhoodl years.
