We were so saddened to hear of Colleen's passing. Always enjoyed our chats as she came through the neighborhood on her scooter. She was kind and gentle and very brave and determined in spite of her illness. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you in the days and weeks ahead. So sorry we missed the funeral services for Colleen.
