Coleen Kelley Thomas

Great to see your message Dave. It's been 11 months and I miss my sister a lot. Just drove by the old house in Rancho last week and your's is for sale! Anyway, I found myself remembering all sorts of things we did as kids. Coleen was loads of fun and there when you needed anything. Best regards to you and yours.

SHE WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME WHEN I NEEDED HER MOST. I MOVED IN NEXT DOOR TO HER HOUSE IN 1959 AND WE GREW UP TOGETHER. I WILL TRUELY MISS HER..

Thanks Kris. I remember Penny well (and her mom Lorraine), her house on Dolcetto. Please give her my best regards. Sorry she is just hearing about Coleen. Take care, and lots of love back at you and Kathy. -Kevin

Dear Michele, Tricia, Kevin and Terry, I think about Coleen all of the time. Reading these entries brought tears to my eyes again. It is ironic to read them today because I am in Reno NV and I am having lunch with Penny Nichol. Do you remember her? She lived in Rancho Cordova. Penny, Coleen and I rode the city bus to St. Francis HS for two years. Penny hadn't heard your mom died and wanted to get together. Today is the first time I will see her. Michele, I will get more fun stories...

The California Kelleys miss Coleen a lot, too. I can't tell you how many times over the past months we have said, "Coleen would have loved this," or "If only Coleen were here..." She left a big, gaping hole in our lives. Thanks to all her friends and our family for helping fill that void.

I just saw Micheles entry and decided I should write one myself. As I sit here in Oklahoma, with snow on the ground and in the air, I'm dreaming of warmer climates. Coleen would be laughing at me right now if she were here. I miss my big sister each and every day. She was major part of my life and our good times will stay with me forever.
It makes me smile each time I read the special stories in this guest book. Thanks to everyone who shared theirs.

It's been approximately 9 months since mom has left us/me and I still think of her every day. Thank you to everyone who could attend her service and those who couldn't I know you were with us in spirit. It was great hearing stories about mom and seeing family and friends get together to remember her. We let mom's ashes go out to sea as she would have wanted and wish she could be with us now. I guess I just wanted to put another entry on her page, before they take it down.

There is no treasure in life worth more than a true friend especially a friend that walks beside us through many years. Coleen was that kind of friend. I know we have a powerful prayer intercessor on the other side.

I knew Coleen through work at Orrick. My nickname for her was "Sunshine". I always enjoyed bringing a smile to her face and loved to hear her laugh! I lost touch with her when she moved to Washington and was hoping at some point to get in touch with her. I am saddened to hear that she has passed. I send my heartfelt sympathy to all her family and friends. God Bless.
