She married the love of her life, Douglas John Argyle on June 22, 1968.
Together they have three beautiful children. Connie was self-employed for many years as a childcare provider. She then worked for the Clare Gladwin ESA and then Midland ESA as a paraprofessional. Connie worked with special needs children from preschool to middle school and loved “her little people”. She was a gift to them. Connie retired in June 2004. She and Doug loved to travel together in their motorhome.
