Colleen Haas Obituary
January 4, 1928 - March 13, 2022
Sacramento, California - Colleen Haas 1928-2022
The family of Colleen Haas is sad to announce the passing of their beloved sister and aunt on Sunday, March 13th, at her home in Sacramento. Colleen is preceded in death by her loving husband Robert Haas. She is survived by her sister, Patricia Fry of Sacramento, her niece Pamela Galvez, nephews William Millsap and Mark Fry, and her great niece and nephews.
Colleen was born on January 4th, 1928 in Sunnyside, Utah and attended schools in Utah and later graduated High School in Thermopolis, Wyoming. Bob and Colleen celebrated 55 years of blissful marriage. Bob was a retired US Navy Chief Petty Officer, Submarine Service, serving in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam, and was at one time stationed in Caracas Venezuela. As such, the two were able to travel the world and continued to do so even after his retirement as a financial adviser with New England Life. Colleen was an accomplished hostess, arts and crafts enthusiast, and singer. Her family has wonderful memories of her strumming her ukulele and singing duets with her sister, Patricia. Colleen will be dearly missed always. Her family will celebrate Colleen's life at a private graveside memorial service, may she rest in peace.

My sympathies to the Haas family for the passing of Mrs. Haas. I was a young boy (12 yrs.) when Mr. and Mrs. Haas lived across the street from us on Lucia Court in Ranch Cordova, Ca., in the early 1960's. Mr. and Mrs. Haas spent a lot of time with my parents and each other's homes. I still have very fond memories of the both of them as my parents and they became close friends. I mowed their lawn regularly for a couple of years. I once pulled what I thought to be a weed, but was a tropical plant that Mrs. Haas had brought back from a trip to Hawaii. It had a sentimental value. They handled it very well even though it was upsetting for them. They were my favorite neighbors for as long as I lived there. Nicest couple ever!
