Colleen, I'm terribly heartbroken to hear of your passing. We shared many great memories together that will always be a much bigger part of my life than you could ever realize, you have always held a very special place in my heart. I had hoped that we would see each other again some day, and now I only hope that when I'm at those gates that you'll recognize me and put in a good word. I loved you immensely in life and will continue to do so in the afterlife. Rest easy my dear friend, you have been one of the great souls on this earth and I'll see you again in heaven ❤

I am so sad to hear of Colleens passing. We were friends since we were about 7 yrs old. She was a sweet and kind person and will miss her. We didn’t talk a lot but when we did it was easy to catch up. My condolences to your entire family.

Queen of Peace strong! I miss our talks already. I just wanted to say I loved working with you. ! You made me laugh daily. The first day I met you I knew we were going to become friends. You are very strong. One thing you taught me as a friend is to be tough. Stand up for myself, etc. I’m gonna miss those phone calls on iI55 to get work scoop.
I am saddened deeply by your loss and in shock. My deepest sympathy to your family. You are in my heart, thoughts, and prayers.
