Connie Rae Henrie Beal

January 30, 1935-April 1, 2026

Connie Rae Henrie Beal was born in Roosevelt, Utah on January 30, 1935 to Clive and Pearl Nelson Henrie. She had an older sister Peggy Jean and a younger sister Pearl “Lorraine.” When Connie was 2-years-old, the family moved to the San Diego, CA area for work. 

They were a musical family and the sisters started singing trios together at ages 7, 9, and 11.  In their teens they were known as the “Henrie Sisters,” and performed both at church and throughout the community, even competing in Hollywood and performing on the “Smokey Rogers” television show. Mom instilled the love of music in the lives of her children and would regularly break into song if a situation or comment reminded her of one. This continues through the generations. 

Connie met her husband Lloyd Ray Beal when he was in the Navy and attended a stake conference where Connie and her sisters were singing. They were married on March 18, 1953 in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple and remained faithful members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints. They were proud parents of 5 daughters and a foster son who they claimed as their own.

Connie passed away at the age of 91 on April 1, 2026 at her home in Cedar Hills, Utah.  She was preceded in death by her devoted husband Lloyd, son Reed (Cathy) Hopper, daughter Annette (Chris) Majestic, as well as 2 grandchildren and 1 great-grandchild. She is survived by children Deborah (Cliff) Smart, Linda Ray, Karen (Larry) Salisbury. Tammy (Brent) Jolley, and over 120 grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren.

A celebration of life will be held at a future date.
