To the Scheider Family, your beloved Colleen was very special to me, I would wait for her loving hugs, in the morning before starting work, she had a laugh like Betty Rubbel on the Flintstones, ha ha ha. She was a gem. 💎 I'm grieving, and missing her much! She is with our dear Lord and Savior.😇

I was Colleen's manager at AGH for years and you couldn't have found a bigger heart in such a "little" person. (Our joke) She loved her coworkers and patients alike. My family will miss her dearly. When she switched jobs to PACU, she was the kindest person and had the biggest smile. Consistently through cancer testing, she ckmforted my mother who was dying of cancer. My parents looked forward to seeing her in these hard times. Made them feel like they knew someone cared. She always commented on my families Facebook posts and we will miss her and her comments dearly. -Bob Calvin
