Carlene Edith Connors, 71, a resident of Riceville, went to sleep on this earth and awoke in her heavenly home to see the precious face of Jesus Christ.

She was born on Nov. 2, 1940, in Camden, N.J. She was a daughter of the late Frank and Virginia Jasczak.

She has made Riceville her home for more than 30 years. She and her family also lived in Cleveland about five years prior to that. She was of the Christian faith.

She worked for Life Care Center of Cleveland, Wood Presbyterian Nursing Home in Sweetwater, and with the Family and Children Service single mother program. She loved people and helping others through her patient advocate and patient rights’ duties. However, she will be most remembered for being a loving wife, mother, and “Nanny.”

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by one son, Jeff Connors.

She leaves behind to cherish her memory her loving husband of 47 years, George; a daughter and son-in-law, Ginger and Chris Arden; granddaughter, Emily Arden; and a host of other extended family members and friends.

The family will hold a private memorial at a later date.

The family extend appreciation to Hospice of Chattanooga for the wonderful care given to her and request that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Hospice of Chattanooga in her memory.

You are encouraged to share a memory of her and/or your personal condolences with her family by visiting her memorial Web page and guest book at www.companionfunerals.com.

Companion Funeral & Cremation Service of Cleveland was honored to assist the family with these arrangements.
