So sorry for your loss, Colleen. I know she loved you very much. My prayers are with you and the family. Jack

My deepest sympathy goes out to Denise’s whole family and friends. Colleen, your mom was so proud of you, and I know she enjoyed spending precious times with you. Denise and I met in high school and remained best friends throughout our lives. We always had fun whether it was going out to breakfast and shopping, or just hanging out at my house spending time with my grandchildren. I will miss her smile, laughter, kindness, and gentle nature she had for people and animals. She loved you all, and I hope you will all find comfort and peace in your joyful memories of a life well lived. I love you Chickie Dee, and I will cherish our friendship forever. Love, Janine.

Sending my condolences To Colleen and family you are her angel watching over her now and will forever be in her heart ❤️❤️

It’s so comforting when someone dies and you have complete assurance of where they will be spending their eternity. I know my mom loved The Lord and He loves her. She is missed. I’ll go on missing her until the day we are reunited on the other side. I thank God for the good times and will cherish them!

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
