Our mother, Connie, was the most Intelligent and Beautiful woman to walk this earth and her children were so blessed to have her as their Mother.
Connie Ann Milam was born on September 16th, 1944 in Ely, Nevada to Cecil Otto Milam and Alta Hillman Nelson. Connie Ann was a only child and grew up in Tooele, Utah and it is there that she met her first Sweetheart Douglas Allen Whipple. After graduation Doug and Connie moved to New Orleans, Louisiana where Connie went to Charity Hospital and became a Nurse Anesthetist. Doug and Connie moved to Monticello, Utah in 1975 to be closer to family and she continued her long career at the San Juan and Grand County Hospitals. Connie loved being a Nurse Anesthetist. She was full of compassion and helped numerous people through hardships and surgeries.
Later in her life she met her second Sweetheart Edward Ray Mills and together they went on to live Happily until his passing. Connie Ann was a kind, sweet and loving mother who gave her all to her family. We will never be able to fill the space left behind by her.
