My thoughts and prayers are with all of Colleen´s family. We were friends when attending St Mary´s grade school. I have fond memories of slumber parties with both Colleen and Vonnie. How blessed were we to have grown up on the "Hill!"
May Colleen rest with the angels.

I remember Colleen from our fun 70s times on Second Street. She was such a cute lil thing and her personality went right along with that. I hadn’t seen her for many years and then when we did run into one another it was like old times in conversation. Colleen was purely a kind soul. I am sorry to read of her passing.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. I knew Colleen from working at the high school, we would go for our walks, Paulette Merzlak, Colleen and myself and have a great time talking. She was such a sweetheart and always smiling. Those are memories that I will always cherish, now Coleen and "Merz" can once again walk together in a much more beautiful place.

Again, I'm so sorry for your loss and how it came on so sudden. However, there is no question on your resemblance to mom. She must have passed on the "good looking" genes in addition to the appreciation of literature and all things civilized ;-) As my tribe is fond saying, "May her memory be a blessing", as I'm sure it will. Take care, see you soon.
