Funeral expenses for Colleen Watrous

Donation protected

Hi all, 
It is with great sadness I write this.  As many know Colleen Watrous had been sick for a few years, and on the day before her 62 birthday, she succumbed to  Alzheimer’s.   Unfortunately , Colleens passing comes just 11 day after her mothers (Patricia Chapman) passing .
Colleen was a devoted member of our community, from working at the police department as a records clerk for 6 years, helping youngsters as a crossing guard, as well as volunteering at Wadsworth Mansion.   Colleen leaves behind her husband(Mark) and 3 children(Ernie, Megan, and Tim).  Mark is left broken hearted, with quite a few medical bills.  Colleens kindness was immeasurable.  She always had a smile, and was ready and willing to help anyone.   Colleen loved spending time with her grandchildren and was often seen out and about with them.  Colleen was the definition of a doting grandma.   Colleens illness  came at such a young age, that she wasn’t able to obtain life insurance or city benefits that would help with these untimely costs.   Let’s help rally around this family and take this heavy burden off their shoulders, especially With the loss of two important and valued family members during the holiday season.
