Colleen was one if the first people I met when I moved to Indiana in 1992. Over a twelve year span we became very close friends. She was a very beautiful girl who had a smile that would cheer you up in an instant. I would give anything to see that smile just one more time. She was always there for me when I needed someone to talk to or confide in.We shared a lot of great times together and I am truly blessed to have known her. Colleen, I want you to know that I love you and am going to miss you dearly. I hope when I leave this place I go to heaven so I can see you again. R.I.P. my friend.
