PRIVATE INTERMENT:
Col, You were always the cool cousin to me. You were the oldest of us, but always the youngest at heart. What a card game you must be running up there, and in good company. How you will be missed, but always loved.
Coleen was a loving sister and Lora and I enjoyed visiting all the places she lived most of all her time in Costa Rica. We always had a great time and she will be missed. Love you Col, now you can rest in peace! You will never be far from our memories!
I'm so sorry for the loss of Coleen. She was always the sweetest sister in law and Aunt to Kyle. I will miss knowing that she is out there cheering us on and loving us unconditionally. We now have an angel watching over us. Fond memories will keep her spirit alive in our hearts forever
Kristen, Kevin, and Brian my deepest condolence to you and your families my prayers are with you
Kathleen Carlisi and Family
