Lipski (Jazwinski), Colleen Colleen Ann Lipski (Jazwinski) born April 30, 1961, died unexpectedly January 29, 2016.

Colleen's beauty and fun-filled soul will forever mark the many lives she touched. Her family and those she loved always came first, especially her boys. Colleen's career as a stylist at Classic Hair Design, gave her great joy as she made people look and feel their best. She had a passion for cooking, and her culinary contributions were enjoyed by all. Her contagious laughter will be greatly missed, even when at the most inappropriate times. She was a loving, caring and giving person who was larger than life and brightened the worlds of all those who knew her. A Mass of Christian Burial and Committal will be celebrated Thursday 11:00 am St. Mary's Church, Marne where she will repose one hour prior. Interment St. Mary's Church Cemetery, Marne.

My thoughts and prayers are with all
of Colleen's family. She always did a fantastic job styling my hair and helping me look professional. My patients always asked who did my hair...and I proudly told them about Colleen. She was a great talker as well as a great listener. She loved talking about her family and the next party she was getting ready for. I sometimes ran into her at Sobie's. I'm sure she is looking down at us all from heaven and saying "don't be sad, I'm gonna get this party started...see you soon!"

Our sympathy to Dave and her loved ones. We are so shocked to hear Colleen's unexpected passing. Our family has known Colleen since she worked at Meijers in the past and then when they moved to a home next to ours. Watched her boys growup and knew of the love she had for her family May all the memories you have of your lives together, give you the strength to deal with your loss. I know she was so very proud of her children and grandchildren and the love you all shared. You will all be in our thoughts. May you find her looking over and guiding you through your lives forever.

I knew Colleen from going to the beauty shop" two of my daughters went to school with her. Colleen was a fun person and when I was at the shop she and I would talk about the old neighborhood, seems she was raised in the same area I was raised in. I loved talking to her and enjoyed her laughter and beautiful smile. My heart goes out to her family and may they find peace in the Lord at this sad time. I will miss her and remember her with very fond memories. Rest in peace Colleen, God has you now. We will all miss you. Mary and Gerard Lampani
