Colleen Roberts Obituary
Colleen was reunited with the love of her life, Dennis on February 2nd. Colleen loved her family and helping others. Her happy place was spending the winters in Arizona. She found joy in baking and cooking for her family and friends. Who is going to make potato salad now? Colleen enjoyed playing cards, especially cribbage, but mostly spending time with family and friends.
She was a loving and caring mom and grandmother. She is survived by her daughters; Holly (Thomas), Sondra (Roger), and Tonya (Josh), her grandchildren; Nick (Jill and Gavin), Corey (Kelena), Alex, Zack, Zoe, and Tyler, her siblings Kelly (Marci), Corrine, Cathy (Rick) and many in-laws, nieces and nephews.
Preceded in death by her husband Dennis, grandson Nic, father and mother (Harry and Stella), mother and father-in-law (Ernest and Tracy) and brother-in-law Denny.
Visitation will be at the Resurrection Lutheran Church (9925 Bailey Road - Woodbury, MN 55129) on February 10th between 9-11:00am followed by the celebration of life with lunch to follow.
In lieu of flowers the family is asking memorials to go to Love to NIC, lovetonic.org

Colleen had a huge heart. She used to help take care of me and my brothers as kids as a PCA when I was growing up. She cared for us like she would her own children. She made us laugh. She helped us grow. She was an integral part of my early years growing up. Though we lost contact as I grew older we would still connect every so often. She was an amazing woman.

I always loved being around your mom; she always made me feel like family. Remember when she played chauffeur at Hollys retirement party so we could have fun? I don´t know how she didn´t get annoyed during those late night trips to the hotel but she just smiled and laughed. We´re sending hugs and love and hope the beautiful memories of her will ease your heart ache.
