She is preceded in death by her husband Thomas Lee Hickman, her parents, and brother, James Mollerup.

My thoughts have often turned to the years when all of the cousins were young and we spent some great times together. Colleen was a special sister-in-law and made our time together fun. You were all blessed to have such a kind, supportive mother. The things she taught you will always be with you, so enjoy the memories and remember how much love so many people had for all of you.
