HITCHINGS, Colette "Coco" Our loving mother passed away peacefully on December 12, 2016. Reunited with our father, Dave, they will be eternally bonded in their final resting place. Born in Paris, France on December 7, 1926 she lived her young life in boarding school and through the ravishes of WWII. She married and followed her husband to the US in 1959. She is survived by her two sons, Yann (Ginny) and Gilbert; grandchildren, Jonathon, Christopher and Sofia and great- grandson, Deryck. Making her home in Tucson in 1964, she dedicated her life to her family; her friends and everyone she served or met. We all will miss you "Coco".

Colette we had so many good times together when we were near neighbors and work partners. It was such a joy to share with you, your laugh and good spirits made us all feel better. What an honor to have you for a true friend. Condolences to Yann, Gilbert and families.

My heartfelt condolences go out to the Hitchings family. Colette seemed like a wonderful person who was loved by many. I hope you can draw some comfort in the words recorded in 1Thessalonians 4:14. Knowing that there is a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be reassuring.
