Connie Kissee

Short Biography:

I was born in Manhattan and have lived here all my life. Graduated from Manhattan High School. I have one son who is working in Kansas City for EDS as a Computer Programmer. Have one Grandson that is getting married Nov. 9th of 2007. I love sports and play Fantasy Football and Baseball every year. At last count I have about 43 sons and 23 daughters that call me their Kansas Mom.

Brief Work History:

I started at K-State in 1973 at Farrell Library and then went and worked for Continuing Education for almost 6 years and promoted back into Hale Library. So that puts me at over 33 years of working for the state.

Personal Interests:
I have a business called Wildcat Cards that started in my basement and then went to a little place over off of Claflin, then moved to Westloop, then moved to a little house off of 3rd Street. No, that isn't all now that the business is back in my basement due to the redevelopment of 3rd Street. The business is Collectible Cards Games and Sports Cards (Magic the Gathering, Star Trek, Star Wars, Killer Bunnies, etc.) and specialized in people that played for KSU and went on to the Pro's. That was my interest for 10 years. Now that the business has slowed down I have taken up Quilting. I have so far made 1 quilt and working on my next one. I started two years ago redecorating my house, by myself and am proud to say I have 5 rooms done.

Additional Comments:

I'm looking forward to retirement (early I hope).
