Conni L. Schmitt, 59, passed away on July 25th, 2023, with family by her side, after her ongoing battle with metastasized breast cancer.

She started working for Carlson Wagonit Travel and American Express before her long career with Coca-Cola. Conni retired in January 2023, after 25 dedicated years with Coca-Cola, to focus on her health and family.
Conni loved to travel all over the world. She has explored more than 30 counties, enjoyed annual beach trips, and going up north to Wisconsin every 4th of July. She was always reading a book, enjoying her hot tub, or spending her time being a Nonni.
