After graduating from high school in La Puente, California, Colleen embarked on a career path that saw her contribute to various businesses with her talents and dedication. Her professional career included roles at House of Fabrics, J.C. Penny, Amfac Thrift & Loan, Bank of Lodi State of California, and the Sacramento Department of Corrections. Colleen's work ethic and caring nature left a lasting impression on her colleagues and those she served.

Colleen's interests painted a picture of a woman who not only cherished the simple pleasures in life but also sought adventure and the company of those she loved. She found delight in the art of sewing and crocheting, crafting creations that were both beautiful and heartfelt. Camping and beach trips were among her favorite ways to unwind and reconnect with nature with family and friends, while the excursions to Big Bear and the river were treasured traditions. Colleen's passion for travel shone brightest when planning vacations, particularly the memorable cruise trips to Hawaii, where laughter and joy were shared against the backdrop of paradise.

The words that best describe Colleen are thoughtful, loving, and kind. She navigated life with an open heart, always ready to offer support and warmth to those around her. Her thoughtfulness was felt in every carefully planned family gathering, every stitch of her crocheted gifts, and in the gentle way she approached every interaction. Colleen's loving nature was her signature, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those who knew her.
