God Bless you Colleen. You are reunited with Babe in Heaven. It’s funny I knew you both when I lived in Elk Point long before I met and married your nephew Gord. I will miss our Facebook chats. Heaven is a brighter place with you in it. Till we meet again. Love to all of the family.

My heart is broken again receiving the news our Aunty Colleen has passed away. I will cherish and place all my memories I have of you from my childhood to now deep in my heart forever. I’m so grateful we spoke on the phone before Christmas. Loosing now 5 family members in a year and a half is unbelievable to anyone. I pray for strength every day. I will miss you dearly when I come home to Heinsburg.
I’m so sorry we cannot be there with everyone. Our love to you Rocky Joanne, and family. Lora Gary and family.
Love you Aunty Colleen ❤️ You will never be forgotten.
