Connie was raised and educated in Portland, Maine and graduated from the University of Maine at Orono with a BS in Nursing. Connie had spent twenty years as a RN at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester, N.H,. most of that time as an Operating Room nurse and member of the renowned heart team, something she was very proud of. She also worked for the U.S. Postal Service as a Rural Letter Carrier (aka) Mailman for thirty years, which she enjoyed very much, but her first love was nursing and helping others. She was kind to all she knew and all that knew her called her friend. She had a passion for reading and loved the work of Stephen King in particular. Things she liked to do include spending time with family and friends, escaping to the mountains, walking on the rocky coast of Maine, any Steve Martin movie, Red Skelton, music, skiing, camping, watching westerns with her Pop, and always took great joy in nature and animals. When she acquired her beloved border collie Chloe seven years ago, her interest now included running agility, as a team they were quite accomplished, attaining their Masters in two different classes of competition. She was preceded by her adored father, Frank Auger. Family members include her mother, Felicienne Auger of Manson, WA; her husband, Carl A. Brown of Amherst, N.H.; brother and sister in-law, Rick and Anne Auger of Manson, WA; her Aunt Connie Boutet of Saco, ME; four step children, Pam Wells of Georgia, Sheila Mancino of Mass., Paul Hopkins of California, and Cliff Hopkins of ME; two nieces, great nieces and nephews and several cousins.
