May all who knew Colleen be comforted in knowing that she is now at peace and painlessly able to do what she loved best.... watch over her children. Although I did not know Colleen long, she was such an inspiration with her positive outlook and complete love for her children. May happy memories and the love that she openly shared be her legacy to all who were blessed by her caring and kind nature. God bless.
