Connie-Jean Bernadette Barnhill

Parents Ryan Scott Barnhill and Ashley Marie Holt welcomed into the world Miss Connie-Jean Bernadette Barnhill three weeks ahead of schedule on the 15th day of November 2023. She arrived sporting a fabulous 6lbs, 13 oz and extending gracefully at 19.5 inches in length. She then went on to earn herself an extended stay suite in the accompanying Neo-Natal NICU spa where she then enjoyed round the clock services focused totally on breathing the very best oxygen, pampered by the very best attendees who administer sun therapy to give the most beautiful complexion possible and two-weeks later she finally decided she was ready to meet the rest of her highness’ royal family members and loyal subjects. She grew a massive amount of admirers, loved ones and supporters within the few short 4 months we were blessed to have with her. Tragically, in the late morning on the 7th of March our princess, Connie-Jean Barnhill breathed her last breath before ascending up into the loving arms of our Lord’s royal embrace. She was preceded in death by her great great-grandparents, Mary Marth, Patsy and Jack White, Lulu and Hal Arnold; great-grandparents, Connie Jean (grandma screwdriver) Driver, Anne Corelly, Caroline Arnold, Tom Cook; grandparents, Kyle Glen Barnhill (pepaw), Ricky Yates (papa).
