Thank you Colleen for your vibrant and inspiring zest for life. We were your neighbors on the 45th and Burleigh block many moons ago. Your genuine cheeriness and warmth were always welcoming invitations for chit chat. Your festive dinner parties with the gallons of Gallo were often remembered when we tried to copy your style. We thought and talked (highly of course) about you for years since we moved apart. You made a deep and lasting and precious impression on us and brought much joy to our lives from having known you. Thank you Colleen for being you and for all the happy memories you bring us.
David, Ronnie and the Michaels.
