COLLEEN GLADIA MILLIGAN Passed away suddenly but peacefully on Sunday, September 6, 2009. Born in Miami, Manitoba on July 18, 1944. Colleen is lovingly remembered by her family, partner Lesleigh and her daughter Kate, brother Steve (Mary), sister Arta (Tom) Bynski and their son Michael (Jen), her faithful companion Buddha, as well as numerous other family, friends, her Home Hardware Family and the many customers she had the privilege of serving, and her many colleagues at Air Canada who she worked with for 29 years. Colleen's sense of humour was legendary. She owned St. Patrick's Day at the Brew Pub. Gardening and decorating were passions, and she always had an artistic project in the works. A highlight each summer was helping out at the Dave Craw Memorial Golf Tournament. Most of all she loved spending time with friends which will leave very fond memories for all those she had the pleasure of meeting. The family wishes to thank Dr. Gallagher, the ER nurses, and Rowena, Amber and Sue from 2 South for treating Colleen like a princess xox! Cremation has taken place and will be followed by a private funeral service in Altamont, Manitoba. A celebration of Colleen's life for family and friends will be held on Wednesday, September 16, 2009 from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at 7711 Richards Trail, Duncan, BC. Flowers gratefully declined, if so desired, memorial remembrances may be made in the form of a donation to the Cowichan District Hospital. Online condolences may be offered at www.hwwallacecbc.com.
