There will never be another person like you, Coleen. You were always upbeat no matter what.....even til the end. I will miss that laugh of yours, girl. Oh my, we did have some good times working together! Remember to tell the angels, "you're not being bossy; you just know how things should be done." I'm so glad I was able to see you recently. Your courage will never be forgotten. Gay and Art Seward
