Connie Larimore

Connie L. Larimore, Milford, passed away at Bayhealth Sussex Campus, on Oct. 27, 2020, at the age of 71.  She was the daughter of the late William C. and Barbara Townsend, Jr.

Connie graduated from Milford High School in 1967.  She spent her life working on the farm. Connie was a member of the Delaware Farm Bureau where at one point she held the Kent County Ladies Chairman and State Ladies Chairman positions.  She was an original member of the Delaware Nutrient Management Program.  Connie was also active with the Farmington Ladies Auxiliary for over 20 years where she also had the past President position.  More recently, she enjoyed being a member of the Harrington Moose Riders Club.

Connie liked to stay busy; she enjoyed gardening and tending her flowers, cooking, crafts and sewing.  She enjoyed motorcycle rides and collecting milk bottles.  Connie recently went back to her farming roots when she re-started tending her 3 Blue Hen chickens and 2 kittens.  Connie was caring, loving, not afraid to speak her mind, and would go out of her way to help others regardless of what was on her plate.  She will always be remembered as the remarkable woman that she was.

Connie is survived by her daughter, Karen (Tom) Hays; son, Michael (Melissa) Larimore; companion, Al Saulsbury; grandchildren, Skylar Larimore, MacKenzie Larimore, Joshua Larimore, and Allison Hays; great granddaughters, Reagan Hays, and Kinsley Wills; sister, Rebecca (Jerry) Rhodes; and extended family.
