Connie Elaine Wallace Jensen was born August 27, 1949, in Grover City CA, and passed away peacefully on June 11, 2024, in Caldwell Idaho. Connie was born to Virginia and Paul Wallace, the youngest of 9 children.
Connie loved growing up in Grover City and Arroyo Grande. She graduated from Arroyo Grande High School. She was part of the Class of 1967. In school she participated in the Future Secretaries, Not All Business Club, which she put to good use for many years in various office positions.
In 1968 she married Robert Tidalgo. Together they share a daughter Kelly and a son Marc. They later divorced.
Connie moved from California to the Caldwell Idaho area in the early 1980’s where she remained the rest of her days.
She married Frank Howery. They were later divorced.
In 1991 Connie married the love of her life, Robert (Bob) Jensen. For 33 years they enjoyed traveling to the Oregon Coast, Hawaii, Utah and back to her hometown in California. They loved spending time at their property in the mountains of Cascade. One of her greatest joys was spending time with her family. Her daughter Kelly and granddaughter Kaitlyn brought her much joy, which increased even more when great granddaughter Karsen was born. Connie would light up every time they came to visit. We are grateful for the beautiful bond they shared.
Bob’s children, grandchildren and his siblings always knew of her love for them and are thankful that she was a part of their lives.
This would not be complete without mentioning her beloved doggy Ben. He brought her so much happiness and comfort. He misses her already.
Connie will be most missed by her loving, devoted, husband and sweetheart Bob, who attended to her every need, to the very end, including her daily Carmelizers.
She is survived by her husband Robert Jensen, her brother Duane Wallace, sister Linda Koehne, daughter Kelly Missamore, son Marc Tidalgo, grandson Michael Shepard, granddaughter Kaitlyn Missamore, great grandchildren Forrest and Karsen. Also surviving are stepchildren Brock Jensen, Ronna Carver (Danny), Brady Jensen (Sandy), Julie Jensen, Brandon Jensen (Monique), Diana Garrett (Steve), Kristen Schiefelbein, and numerous step grandchildren and step great grandchildren.
