"Connie became our clerical when I was Assistant Buyer at McCurdy?s China department under Libbie Luciano. She was my ?partner in crime? whenever a little bit of mischief was on the agenda. I sat next to her in the office and she was always easy to work with. I?m sad to hear of her passing but glad to have known her."
In loving memory of
Connie M. Giacalone
December 8, 1926 - May 24, 2023
