Colleen O'Brien Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 18, 2025.
O'Brien - Colleen P. of Huntington, NY passed away peacefully on Sept. 5th, 2025. Born on June 20, 1959. Colleen grew up in Old Bethpage. She attended JKF high school in Plainview. She loved the outdoors and being around animals. She enjoyed cooking, especially corn beef and cabbage or a good Irish stew. She was famous for her Irish coffee and she made sure everyone got one. She loved sharing good times with friends and family and could out last most of us. Her beautiful smile and strong will, will be remembered. She leaves behind Seamus, her partner of 40 years. Daughter Shannon, Son Casey and grandsons Danny, Peyton and Carter. Sisters Maureen, Carolyn and Patty. Our family is grateful to everyone for their love, kindness and support.
