Since I had an office for many years at the Labor Home I saw just how hard Colleen selflessly worked representing the members of the IAM.
Thoughts and prayers to her family.
She will be sorely missed by the Labor Movement.

I am a labor attorney that represents employers. I had the opportunity and pleasure to negotiate across the bargaining table from Colleen. We had an excellent working relationship and I always enjoyed working with her. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We were so lucky to live next door to Colleen and become friends with her. I always appreciated her spunky, kick butt attitude and her fierce loyalty to those she loved. She will be so missed.
