In lieu of flowers, or along with, whatever your heart desires, please call an old friend and go to lunch, go to a show, or take a vacation. Enjoy the experiences life has to offer, and offer them up to the people in your life. That's what Collen taught us. If you would like to give to a charity, know that she loved the Aspen Mine Center and the Victor Elks.
