Was blessed to work with Colleen for many years . As a nurse/ manager i relied on the admitting dept to facilitate optimal patient care . She was dependable and professional while showing care and compassion. Colleen was like a member of the hospital family. And then years would past and it was so good to reconnect at Harmers/ Cooks cafe. I want to express my sincere sympathy to the family. Till we meet on the other side….

Colleen reminds me of a special poem I read. A bond between mother and her children are for every. For her daughters she always there for support twenty-four hours a day. For here sons she the female presence that teaches love and respect. Mothers provide a shoulder to cry on and are an infinite wealth of advice. a mother’s love is unconditional and losing someone like that is never easy. I always admired Colleen her caring and selfless nature. Colleen was always a pleasure to be around. Colleen was a amazing woman and will truly be missed.
