Colleen Egan Obituary
Passed away on March 9, 2025. Colleen was the cherished daughter of Joan (nee Brocious) and the late Bertram Egan; adoring sister of Jean (Bob) Zamrin and Martin (the late Anne) Egan; loving aunt of Katie Passarella and Christopher Hood; great aunt of Macie and Jake Hood; devoted fiancé of Charles Reynolds.
While we mourn the passing of Colleen, she left behind so many loving memories. Colleen worked as a devoted teacher at Beechwood Pre-School for 38 years. She loved working with children and watching them grow. Colleen's most cherished love in the world was her mother, Joan Egan. Her love and care for her was endless. Colleen found her soul mate Charles, creating countless memories together. She dedicated herself to making people smile. She was an avid Philadelphia sports fan and particularly loved the Eagles. She loved her trips to Atlantic City, where she would enjoy playing her slot machines and her weekly bingo nights. She loved her great niece and nephew Macie and Jake and was always willing and eager to watch them. Colleen was loved by everyone and will be missed dearly.
Colleen's family will receive friends and relatives on Monday, March 17th, 10-10:45 AM at Christ the King RC Church, 200 Windsor Ave., Haddonfield, NJ; where her Funeral Mass will immediately follow at 11 AM. Interment is private. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in honor of Colleen may be made via Go Fund Me ( ) for a memorial bench to be placed at Beechwood Pre-School.

Colleen was my co worker at Beechwood School. We were across the hall from each other so we combined our classes for special events. We shared the same time for recess and lunch. We became friends. She was a huge factor in making our school days fun.
I remember casino bus trips with her and Joan, and many meetings for breakfast and lunch even after i retired. When she met Charles, it was evident that they were a very happy couple! Taken way too soon. But always in my heart. Rest in peace Colleen. You were much loved!
