Saddened to hear of your lovely vibrant Mums passing.
I am Robyn Hyland and our mothers were very close .
Grew up together always sent cards and gift for birthdays.
Mum would get on the phone and often it was a 2 hour marathon.
IMy mother Pam is now in a care home and failing.
She was upset at Coleen´s passing as she has lost a great friend.
God bless and she is will will always be in Pam´s heart
She said to me she will see her again when it is her time.

Will keep the terrific memories of knowing this remarkable lady. Colleen ws married to my uncle Peter/ Paddy. I first met her in 1980 s when they both came to Ireland and she was searching her roots. I remember how trilled to find her linage in Co Donegal Ireland. A marvellous host when we spent Christmas on New Zealand in 2003. I will miss our phone conversations and letters. Sincere condolences to Bernadette Thomas & Jacqueline. Slan Colleen
