VASTENHOUT,
Colleen Patricia.
On 2 September 2020, God sent his angels to bring Colleen home. Colleen passed away in her Greytown home, surrounded by her loving family, aged 80. Colleen was loved and cherished by husband Peter, and was the adored mum of Garry, Nelly and Giles, Joan and Brendon, Fay and Jason, Maree and Warren, Mark and Michelle, and Nana to her 12 grandchildren. Loved sister to Noeline (deceased), John, Kathy and Keith.
Due to Covid 19 restrictions a private Requiem Mass for Colleen will be held at Sacred Heart Catholic Church Greytown on Friday 4 September 2020 at 11am. Those wishing to say goodbye to Colleen beforehand can contact Richmond Funeral Home on 06 3797616.
The day God took you home
In tears we saw you sinking
And watched you pass away
Our hearts were almost broken
We wanted you to stay
But when we saw you sleeping
So peaceful free from pain
How could we wish you back with us
To suffer that again.
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God took you home.
