Colleen was always a joy to chat with when we would see her and Doug out and about. She was one of the nicest and kindest individual you could have as a friend or acquaintance. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family at this difficult time. She fought hard until the end. May you rest in peace now you have your angel wings.
