About Connie Brown Welker

Connie Brown Welker passed away on April 25, 2022 at the age of 89. Connie was born on October 24, 1932 in Mesa, Arizona to loving parents John Brown and Lillie Fish Brown. She lived in Mesa all of her life. Connie was preceded in death by her husband, Dale Rene Welker, and daughter Angela.

Connie graduated from her beloved Mesa High School in 1950 and the Good Samaritan Hospital School of Nursing in 1953. Later that same year she was sealed to her eternal companion Dale in the Mesa Arizona Temple. They were blessed to have 5 children: Angela (deceased), Jeffery Dale Welker (Cindy), Gregory Scott Welker, Wendi Sunderhaus (Herb), Amy Williams (Kurt).

Connie spent the better part of her life working as a homemaker and serving faithfully in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her greatest happiness was found with her husband, children, 11 grandchildren, and 18 great-grandchildren. She knew each one of them well and they all adored her. Connie’s life was spent in the service of her Heavenly Father, her family, and the friends she loved. She leaves a legacy of Christ-like love and unwavering faith.

A visitation for friends and family will be held Wednesday evening, May 4th, from 6-8 PM at the Bunker Family Garden Chapel, 33 N Centennial Way, Mesa. All are welcome.

A graveside service will be held Thursday morning, May 5th, at 10 AM, at the Mesa Cemetery, 1212 N Center Street.

I remember Connie because I rode the same bus she did when we went to school at Mesa High School. She was a grade ahead of me, and I remember her wearing her Girls League sweater and how nice she looked. She really impressed me at school and we became friends and were friends over the years and enjoyed being in the same Ward (Church) together with the same friends. Dale, her husband took pictures of a son we lost at birth and that was comforting thing for us. Dale was also a friend of my late husband, Donald Glen Millett. I will miss seeing her at our Church meetings, she was a sweet and wonderful friend.
