To Ron, Mya and Lloyd,
We are thinking of you all at such a sad time. You were such a wonderful family to have as neighbours and I know Colleen listened to both my girls trials and tribulations whilst she cut their hair for them. No doubt some of the stories she heard would have made her smile. She kept their confessions secret, which was one of Colleen's many wonderful qualities. She was such a kind, warm and loving lady and I know you have both instilled these values in Lloyd and Mya.

Sending you our love and thinking of you all.

To the family and friends. Our love and great sadness at the passing of the lovely Colleeen. Her many volunteer hours caring for the women at the feel better classes with always a huge smile and care. Her hours being a facilitator at our North Shore classes and the special touches she gave. Colleen was one special person. I loved how we both ran a marathon for LGFBNZ - but hers was in New York!!! i thank you Colleen for all that you did for so many. We will miss knowing that you were there with others helping them through cancer treatment. We share an image of you in a class giving your knowledge. How we will remeber you. Your Look Good Feel Better family
