Connie Schoenlein
Connie M. Schoenlein passed away on August 23, 2018 at the age of 66.
She leaves behind her husband Anthony (Tony) R. Schoenlein; her daughter Jennifer & Greg Salm; her sons, Anthony Lee Schoenlein and Keith Schoenlein; four grandchildren Ayden, Rielly, Elaina and Miles; two brothers, Mike (Mary) Buschur and Gerald Buschur; a sister Phyllis (Dick) Gansert; and in-laws, Margie Buschur, Paul & Phyllis Schoenlein, Barb & Bill Ahrens, Connie & Ted Schmitmeyer, Betty & Bob Broering, Bill & Judy Schoenlein, Tom & Helen Schoenlein, Ron & Linda Schoenlein, Mary & Ken Larger and Joe & Sherry Schoenlein.

Connie was born on March 18, 1952 in Coldwater, Ohio, where she raised her three children. In 2015 she and Tony relocated and retired to "The Farm" outside of Portland, IN, where her "Grandchildren Became Friends."
Connie will always be remembered for her great ability to talk to anyone, her beautiful smile and her sweet personality. She always bought the best gifts, as they were truly heartfelt and she was happiest spending time with her family including their annual vacations to Michigan. Like her dad Melvin, she was a firebug, always the first to start the campfire and keep it going.
Connie worked as a Real Estate Agent and started her own business, CS Cornerstone Realty. She showed true strength and grace as she battled breast cancer and was her family's rock and hero.
Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 am Monday, August 27, 2018 at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Coldwater. Burial will be in St. Elizabeth Cemetery, Coldwater.
Family and friends may visit at the Hogenkamp Funeral Home in Coldwater from 1 to 5 pm Sunday and 9 to 10 am Monday.
