</span>Colleen was with us in the South Pacific from 1982 – 1985, and had
numerous assignments before that time.<span>
</span>She lived near us in Denver for a number of years, but finally moved
to be near her son in Moab.<span>
</span>She lives in a senior housing complex that is very attractive, and has
many friends in the town, including a wonderful church community.</font></p>

asked Colleen if she would like the OE community to know and she agreed.<span> </span>She would appreciate notes, preferably
by snail-mail as operating her computer keyboard is difficult due to neurapathy
