Dearest Colleen,

I will forever cherish my time at Holy Cross Catholic School with you. You taught me so much when I first began teaching and I will never forget your kindness, gentleness and the love you showed to all the pupils.

I have enjoyed seeing all your adventures with Phil on Facebook and will miss those updates and seeing your beautiful smile!

Rest in the arms of the Lord.

Lots of love always,

Thank you Colleen for your wonderful friendship over the years. I treasure the many years teaching alongside Colleen at Holy Cross Catholic School. Colleen was my son´s first teacher and she ensured he had an amazing start to school. Recently I have wonderful memories of going for swims at Anzac Bay and boogie boarding in the surf with Colleen. I will miss you dear friend. You are with the Lord now.
(I am currently overseas and sadly unable to attend the funeral)

Our hearts are so full with beautiful memories of Colleen. What a walking angel on this Earth...a beautiful, kind hearted woman with a Big Heart and Big Smile. Colleen was an inspiration to us and others. Her testimony of our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ was a big part of her life. She loved her husband Phil and talked highly of him. She loved her children so much. We look forward to seeing you again on the other side of the veil someday Colleen. Thanks for being a part of our wedding in America seven months ago. LOVE, PEACE and HUGS to your family and friends...Wendy & Tony Goodhue
