November 5, 2012

I am writing to let the community know that Colleen Smith, Order colleague,
has entered hospice care at home in Moab, Utah.  She is suffering from COPD
and lung cancer and is experiencing a degree of pain that allows for this
move.  

Ken and I went to see her last weekend and it was during this time that the
decision was made to go into hospice mode.  Colleen was with us in the South
Pacific from 1982 - 1985, and had numerous assignments before that time.
She lived near us in Denver for a number of years, but finally moved to be
near her son in Moab.  She lives in a senior housing complex that is very
attractive, and has many friends in the town, including a wonderful church
community.

We asked Colleen if she would like the OE community to know and she agreed.
She would appreciate notes, preferably by snail-mail as operating her
computer keyboard is difficult due to neurapathy from the chemo she had been
taking, but can no longer take.

Her address is:   Colleen Smith, 540 E 100 N #105, Moab, UT 84532.  Phone:
435-259-7996

She says she is "free" in terms of this decision and is interested to see
how this phase progresses.

Ken and Clare Whitney, Denver
