Help Us Fulfill Colleen’s Wishes
Donation protected
Her name is Colleen, but she likes it with a K.
She loved reptiles and plants, dancing and art, family and music. She has been many different people in her life- walked through dozens of different lifestyles and stereotypes. Wondering between social groups like a gypsy.
Kolleen was energetic, sparky, and moody. She was very extroverted and could talk for hours with anyone and everyone, even a stranger on the street. She lived her life conquering her fears one after the other all the while doing everything she could to help others. She would give you the shirt off her back if you were cold, the last crumb in her pantry if you were hungry.
She did this not just for relatives, but for everyone.The world was her family and family was the most important thing in existence. She could be a pain in the ass even in the best times. She had the heart of a child, looking at the world in wonder and offering her heart up to anyone who asked (and more often than not- those who didn’t.) She loved unconditionally, and I mean that literally. No matter your demons or sins, she would accept you and love you and guide you in ways that she wished she was accepted, loved, and guided. This is how she dealt with her pain.
She will be missed dearly and the family would like to hold a service equal to her personality but could use a little help with the memorial. With her mother in debt and her sister in school, we turn to her army of friends for help.
Thank you so much.
