Coleen it was always laughs and so much fun to be with you. We married brothers the same month of the same year you and I and from day one we were connected. You always were family to me. You were a lovely accepting woman with a great sense of humor. Life got so busy and we didn’t get to see each other much and I’m sad for that. I know you brought Don happiness and you loved him so very much. I am so glad you were a part of our family and our life. The world is a bit quieter without your laughter now. Be at peace.

Loving sister, always looked forward to seeing Coleen and Don on our return home, even though the last time two years ago, she did not know us. We have many fond memories of Her. I will always remember her as a young boy an man as being a very loving an giving person. She was a very loving person and could aways come up with a interesting story of our younger years. Some of which I did not remember the way she did. If ever their was a free spirit an loving spirit it was my big sister, will love and miss her. Frank Earl one of her baby brothers.

I will always remember traveling with Coleen and Don to the Black Hills in 1985 and seeing Coleen pull a young boy out of the hot tub, preventing him from drowning. She was a very caring person, who will be missed.
