Donna Chappell wrote a sympathy message

“Colleen was my best friend from Grade 5 throughout high school and was a bridesmaid for me when I married. We lost touch after we both married but the memories of our special friendship will remain with me always. In high school we participated in every sport cheerleading event we could join. I credit her with making those years so memorable for me. .Her diminutive stature never stopped her from being successful in anything she tried. George( my nickname for her) I hope you are finally at peace.”

“i remember Colleen on our three day TLK backpacking trip with 20 students. Unknown to all of us, she carried a bag of oranges the whole way, to share and celebrate at the end of the journey. She surprised us, a generous act from a generous soul. My condolences to all the family. Jill Robinson”
