Connie L.

Lego

Connie L. Lego, of Marcellus, Michigan, passed away peacefully at her home on November 11, 2026. She was born on June 26, 1947, in Dowagiac, Michigan.

Connie will be remembered as a woman with a lively spirit and a joyful presence. She was the owner and operator of Next to New in Three Rivers and Marcellus, where she built connections with many through her work. She enjoyed going to garage sales and checking out the local Goodwill stores for treasures, always finding delight in the search. She also enjoyed playing bingo and cards, as well as doing puzzles. Connie was a member of the Red Hat Society, and she was known for her cheerful “Woohoo,” which she would call out to let people know she was there.

Above all, Connie treasured her family. She is survived by her daughter, Vickie Earl; her grandchildren, Chad Earl and Hallie Earl; her great-grandchildren, Aubree, Allison, McKenzie, and Tessa Earl; and her brother, Larry Mikel. Each of them carries forward the memory of her warmth, her energy, and the unmistakable joy she brought into the lives of those around her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Bobbie and Bernice Mikel, and by her son, Brian Earl.

Connie will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by her family, friends, and all who knew her. Her memory will live on in the stories shared, the laughter she inspired, and the familiar echo of her beloved “Woohoo.”
