Colleen Bingham Haviland
GRACE - Colleen Bingham Haviland, 70, of Grace, Idaho, passed away Tuesday, February 8, 2011, in St. George, Utah, after a courageous battle with breast cancer.

She then married Don Noble and they had a son, Kelly. Don passed away in 1980.
Colleen and Don bought the Grace Lounge in 1968, which she owned and operated for 40 years. Colleen held many benefits and huge dinners when someone needed help. There would be a pool tournament, darts or even horseshoes. She made a lot of money to help many people.
Colleen married Gary Haviland in 1987. He passed away December 1996.
Colleen enjoyed camping, dancing, traveling, golf, pool, darts, cards, and just life itself but most of all, laughing with friends. She has spent the last four winters in Beaver Dam, Arizona, where she made a whole new family of friends.
She was preceded in death by two husbands, Don Noble and Gary Haviland, one son, Don Wayne Jessop, her parents, Vereen and Ruby Bingham.
