Alberta “Bert” C Conner, 88, of Dubuque died Wednesday, May 26, 2021 at Stonehill Care Center. Private graveside services were held Saturday, May 29 at Mt. Olivet Cemetery.
Bert was born October 21, 1932 in Keokuk, Iowa, daughter of Albert and Thelma (Smith) Redlinger. In 1951 she married Cloyd Conner. Bert worked at a variety of jobs throughout the years and lived a simple life. She loved to sew, knit and craft beautiful items for her family. Her homemade pies and pumpkin bread were family favorites. Bert was an avid football fan, especially the Hawks, and loved watching professional golf. Her family was most important to her, and she was always available to listen and offer a helping hand. She will be deeply missed!
She is survived by her daughter, Cindy (Tim) Pfiffner of Dubuque; grandchildren, Robin (Scott) Filseth of Dubuque and Lindsay (Jared) Nauholz of Cedar Falls; great grandchildren, Emily, Elaina, Elisabeth, Ava, Olivia and Lincoln and two sisters, Naoma (Marty) Flavin of South Carolina and Shirlee Clark of Colorado.
