Connie was a graduate of Park City High School in May 2007. Connie began her journey to develop equestrian expertise in Denver, Colorado, earning more than 150 ribbons and awards. She took her two horses, Luke and Sam, with her to the University of Kentucky where she was a member of the University Equestrian Team. Connie was a vivacious young lady who enjoyed life. On her Facebook wall she placed her philosophy of sharing happiness, "Smile. It's the simplest way to share joy." It was clearly evident how well she practiced her philosophy. Comments reported on her Facebook expressing tributes of her joy and spirit included: "She was so full of life and would do anything for anybody;" "She was so in tune with other people's feelings, and she would sacrifice her sleep or time to help out a friend." A memorial service requested by her fellow students on campus was attended by more that 400 students, faculty, and friends with standing room only at the Baptist Student Center on campus, this past Monday night.
She is survived by her parents, an older brother, Thor of Carrollton, GA; an older sister, Kelley Ann Krohnert and her husband, Paul of Austell, GA. Kelley gave birth to their first child the day of Connie's untimely death. She is also survived by her four grandparents, aunts and uncles, and many cousins. Connie's faith affiliation was in the Baptist Church.
A memorial service will be held on Fri., April 18 at 10 a.m. in the Park City Community Church, 4501 North Hwy 224 (behind Park City Nursery), Park City. A Visitation for Friends and Family will be Thursday, April 17 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. also at the Park City Community Church.
