Irion Books recently learned that Connie Gregory, a regular book reviewer of the Summit Murder Mystery Series, lost her battle with cancer.

According to Connie, who hosted a review Blog, "I adore reading good mysteries and novels and now I am writing my opinions and feelings about them. Two things I love to do read and write!"

Her husband sent us an email to notify us and wrote that Connie loved the Series.

Our thoughts are with her family. We will miss you Connie. Thank you for everything.

Others, as I have discovered, need only basic fitness and a dose of common sense. So, lace up, grab a water bottle and get ready.
