"To Colleen's Family: We are so very sorry for your great loss. Colleen was a bright spot in the day. She never complained about how she was feeling or how sick she was. She was very proud of her family - all of you. She was so proud to tell us that two of her grandchildren worked at Bellevue too and proudly introduced them. We really miss your mom/grandma and sharing a meal with her. Such a wonderful and talented lady. "
