Lillian 'Connie' Conover, passed away peacefully from this life on Saturday, August 4, 2012, where she resided in Monmouth Maine, in the same manner in which she lived her life. Thoughtful, hard working, always doing her best, smiling wide in remembrances of living her life with only good memories.

"Connie" as she was affectionately called, had great pride in being born and raised in Conovertown, New Jersey. She went on after high school to serve in the Women's Army Corps for nine years. During that time she was stationed at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, DC and then as a recruiter in New Jersey. She earned the designation of First Sergeant.

After her military career, she pursued her Bachelor of Arts in education at Hofstra University and went on to teach in Uniondale, New York. Ever willing to explore life, she made the decision to relocate to Monmouth, Maine and embrace the occupation of antique dealer and co-ownership of Lantern Light Antiques.

An avid stamp collector, Connie loved oil lanterns, animals, and anything christmas. Her dry sense of humor would catch you off guard, and totally leave you laughing. She totally enjoyed and embraced the friendship of the community where she chose to live out the rest of her life. Our lives are richer for having her in them. She will be missed.

Connie was survived by Pat Culp her beloved partner of 57 years, her brother Howard E. Conover, Sr., three nieces Karen Abrahamson, Barbara Edwards, and Susan Roberts, and three nephews, John Abrahamson, Ken Irelan and Howard (Chuck) Conover, Jr. A private service will be held by the family.
