Today is a sponsor-a-day for Connie Lamm (formerly Connie Robertson) from fellow chimp house volunteers Pam, Denice, Patti, Annie, and Lynn as a congratulations on her recent marriage to Bill!
Connie has been not just a caregiver volunteer for years, she has also been instrumental in helping the chimpanzees in numerous other ways, from spending hours and hours preparing for and holding invaluable committee chair positions for our fundraising events, to calling donors to thank them, to picking up food for the chimps before every volunteer shift. She even got her MAST permit so she could pour cider at our recent Sippin’ for the Seven event.
To top off all of these things she does for the chimpanzees, Connie talks to absolutely everyone she meets about her chimpanzee friends and has charmed many an acquaintance into following the chimps and making donations. Her generosity extends to her human friends as well, and she will gladly drop everything to carry out a favor or offer a word of kindness.
Bill has been so supportive of Connie being at the sanctuary and away from him a lot, often on Saturdays, and he and his sons even helped J.B. with Young’s Hill fence construction; so we all think he’s a keeper.
Congrats, Connie & Bill! With great love from Pam, Denice, Patti, Annie, and Lynn.
Congratulations & big hugs to you Connie!!!
happy Connie day, Connie Sue!! I officially declare today, December 21, the holy day of Winter Solstice, to also be Connie Day. xoxo
Congratulations to you both.
Connie thank you for all the things you do for the “7” and the humans that love them as much as you do.
oh yah – congratulations to Bill too. He hooked himself a good one 😉
Love you, Connie! The chimps scored big when you came along! Congrats to Bill and you!
Connie, you sound amazing and you raise the bar for the rest of us. CSNW is so lucky to have someone like you. Keep up the good work and best wishes for happy days ahead for you and Bill!
You are the most AMAZING friends, thank you so much!!! I feel so blessed to be able to volunteer with such a great group of ladies that all have the same goal…helping the sanctuary and caring for the chimps. These women all have huge hearts and truly love the chimps!
