My condolences to Colleen's family. My memories are from the 1950s and 60s on Gladstone Ave., where we grew up. Colleen was my friend, and Brian was my brother's friend. I'll share one of our creative ventures. Colleen dictated a play as she composed it in her mind, and I wrote down the words. I think it was entitled "The Old Man". We rounded up the kids in the neighbourhood, mainly girls, and acted out the play in my backyard for anyone who wanted to come and see it. I remember how smart and creative she was. I wish that we had still kept in touch after the 60s, and that I could read Colleen's original play again. May God rest her soul!
