Connie Irene Campos, 84, died peacefully on Wednesday, December 14, 2022, at her home in Sheridan, Oregon. She was born December 3, 1938, in Ontario, Oregon, to Gordon and Grace Montgomery.

Connie married Antonio Raymon “Tony” Campos on December 15, 1957, in Winnemucca, Nevada. They lived in Salem, Oregon, from 1961 until the family moved to Valsetz, Oregon, in 1967.
