Nature was Connie’s passion. While a board member of Kitsap Audubon Society she wrote the
following in her profile: “I was raised on Bainbridge Island. I’m a Salish Sea Marine Naturalist, a
member of Kitsap Beach Watchers, a Salmon Docent and a photographer. I love to use my camera to
document wild animals interacting with the environment. I love this place we call home. The beauty of
the land, sea, and the creatures we share it with never cease to inspire and move me.”

Connie leaves her son, Travis Rick, mother Joan Bickerton, brother Ralph (Angie) Bickerton, niece
Elisabeth, nephew John, uncle Morris (JoAnn) Komedal, and cousins Karen, Kristen, and Jennifer. She
was preceded in death by father John Bickerton, Aunt Sylvia Tytler, Uncle George Bickerton, and
cousin Ian.
