Rest in peace Colleen. Thankyou for being present in our lives and helping us create wonderful memories as we participated in the various FFI activities and travels over the years with you and Elvin. Your smile and laughter will be forever with us!

Condolences to Elvin and all the family to whom she was a very special lady.

Steve Beaudoin and Cheryl Worthy

To Elvin and family we extend our deepest condolences. We met Elvin and Colleen many years ago when we joined the Heart to Heart Support Group. And, through those many years we were fortunate to have gotten to know Colleen and enjoyed interacting with her. We do miss our times with all at H2H and all the members. We are thinking of you all at this very sad time.

To Elvin and Family, so sorry to hear that Colleen is no longer with us. Each time we chatted with the two of you, she was always so pleasant and caring.

Regards

Bill and Pauline Roeske

To Elvin and families, I extend my deepest sympathy.

Colleen was a wonderful person who gave all she capable of being a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She gave all of you a world of love and appreciation.

“I can make a difference” is the motto of the Friendship Force (Journey) Club that Arlo and myself joined when you Colleen and Elvin were the chairpersons.

Throughout our club time with our many travels, dinners, social visits, good jokes, good advice; especially on health matters - Colleen had knowledge about all of it.

“Yes, Colleen “you have made a difference” and I know that I have lost my very dear treasured friend.

Colleen you are where there is no more suffering or sorrow, only peace.

You will be in my memory forever Colleen. Terry

Dear Elvin,

I'm so sorry that Colleen is no longer with us. You were such a wonderful couple and I always enjoyed chatting with her at the various Alumni get togethers. My thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Sincerely,

Laurene King

We are long time friends who loved her and will miss her. Elvin - she is with God now and he will look after her.

A piece of Heaven I was granted to know for a short time. Even though I only met Colleen only 20 short years ago, she became part of family very quickly. Her kind and caring nature made all my family feel very comfortable. She was very compassionate and worried about my Dad when he was sick with cancer, and called to see how he was - even when she was in the hospital. Colleen, you weren’t feeling well when we had Dad’s celebration of life, but you made it to the event. What a remarkable person! Like I said, a little bit of Heaven I got to know. I didn’t say it enough but thank you Colleen for being so caring.

Colleen, you had many great times together with Mom and Dad. They always talked about the laughter and good visits you had.

May you know that you are very much loved. We will miss you.

To Elvin and family - my family is here for you and we are sending you our love.

Love Dianna
