Collene was an especially proud grandmother to Kadence, Maddox and Leroy. She also dearly loved her many nieces and nephews as well as their children.

In her spare time, Collene loved cooking, cross stitch, garage sales, spending time with family and friends and having her grandchildren over for sleepovers. Collene was much loved by her family, friends, co-workers and customers. She will be very missed.
