Mrs. Constance Heiman Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Constance L. Heiman, (nee Brockmeyer) born February 18th, 1924, passed away quietly on January 15th, 2016. Jordan L. Heiman, her husband of sixty-nine years, died on June 7th, 2015. Connie’s love of the arts ranged from the visual arts to music, poetry to dance. She enjoyed travel and exploring her interests in contemporary art, architecture, and design with Jordan. An artist in her own right, Connie spent her lifetime re-creating the world around her; her home and her award-winning gardens were passions that delighted her and were shared with family, friends and the larger community. A Marine Corps veteran, Connie remained involved with her community and was committed to making a difference throughout her life. She volunteered time to organizations she aligned with, including Craft Alliance, Planned Parenthood, and Missourians for Gun Control. Connie was well loved by those who knew her. Her warmth and generosity will be greatly missed by her three daughters and their husbands, Jill (Heiman) and the Reverend Don Crary; Ann (Heiman) and Mark Kram; and Lyn (Heiman) Manton and Dennis Krueger; her seven grandchildren, Michael Q. Fellmeth, Aaron X. Fellmeth, Gabriel E. Kram and his wife, Lea Wood, Justin W. Kram, Jesse P. Manton, Tessa R. Manton, and Tucker D. Manton; her great granddaughter, Talullah Azul Kram; her sisters Nancy Smith and Laura Franzwa; her nephew Scott Goehri and wife Andrea and their daughters, Samantha and Alyssa; and her sister-in-law Marilyn (Heiman) and her husband Isaac Young. The family is indebted to Marcia, Michelle and Kaitlyn, and her other remarkable in-home caregivers, and the caregivers at Dolan Memory Care Homes, who embraced Mom to the end of her life. Mom was an engaging, passionate woman. We will miss her bright smile, contagious laugh and unconditional love. Contributions in her memory can be made to the Missouri Botanical Gardens, www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/donate/tributes-and-memorials.aspx, the Alzheimer’s Association, www.alz.org/donate. A celebration of Connie’s life is planned for April 2nd, at the Ethical Society on Clayton Road. For further information please contact Jill Crary at jillcrary@gmail.com.
