Colleen was born in Roswell, NM on April 13, 1958. Later she moved to Socorro, NM where she married Daniel Lopez, a union of 42 years. Colleen retired from Tripps Inc after 37 years of faithful service.

Colleen loved living on the farm, growing tomato plants, tending to her roses, and watching the evening sunsets. She loved to cook for others, garden and travel to see her family in Alaska to go fishing. Her pride and joy was her family, specifically her two granddaughters.
