"Colleen was six years old when I first met her. She was a ball of wild energy with a mischievous smile and actions to match. She liked to cuddle and had a creative imagination. Growing up the youngest of six children was not easy, it gave her a understanding of compassion and courage. Knowing when to "duck" was just as important as knowing when to help. She loved her family. Those qualities love, compassion and courage flourished, thru her life as a daughter, a sibling, a wife, a mother and grandmother she spread love and was the consummate caregiver. The love and tender care she gave to others was returned to her. The Fiandaca family is her living legacy. God Bless you all......... "
