Colleen was a beautiful soul, I met her in my time in Lancaster and she became like a mother to me. Always was helping the roommates out. It saddens me to come across this…she loved her family deeply and talked so highly of you all. My prayers are with you all 💜

Our hearts break with yours.  I’m sure my mom and yours welcomed her into heaven, and they are no doubt eating and laughing together at this moment.  Until we who have called upon the name of Jesus join them, I’ll ask God to comfort us as we miss them.  May he do that for you today.  In love, tears, prayers, Shawn, Amy, and Lily Smith.
