Colleen will be greatly missed. We shared a few cocktails and a bunch of laughs at the PAO seminars. Although we wouldn't see each other for a year it was so easy to pick up where you left off with Colleen. Her easy going disposition made her a joy to be around. She will be greatly missed. How lucky I am to have known her.

While I did not have the opportunity to spend much time with Colleen, she certainly was a very special person. She had such a warm, friendly personality and will be deeply missed by all. May your memories of her live in your hearts forever.

Dear Erv, Abby, Derek & Rachel: I've just read the obituary notice in the Sault Star and my heart is now beyond heavy. It was too late for me to attend the visitation and it's not possible for me to attend the service tomorrow. I am so sorry for this terrible turn of events as well. It is all so very unfair. The strangest thing is that yesterday and the day before, Colleen was very much in my mind. Honest. Of course I haven't seen her in the recent and not so recent past and that is all my fault and my heart is heav with regret. I have such wonderful memories of that kind, witty, intelligent and caring woman, that just the thought of her leaves me with a warm glow on the inside and a wee smile on the outside. It's only now I realized that the "Christmas in July" party we had so many years ago was also Colleen's birthday! Had I only known! One of the most vivid recollections I have of that occasion was a chat with Colleen, the subject of which shall remain forever private between Colleen and me (and perhaps Don) which sent me scurrying like crazy and wondering how in the world I could have managed to make such a gaff!!! All was well in the end though, thank the Lord! I remember how much Don truly cared for and loved Colleen in a wonderful, friendly and perhaps fatherly way. He very much respected her and he very much looked forward to visiting with her, especially when he was ill. She'd drop in with donuts for the two of them on her way back to town from some POA court down the line (or is it up the line??). Don truly loved, with all his heart, that wonderful lady and looked forward to visiting with her more than he enjoyed the company of his own children, I'm certain. What a statement that is about Colleen. I must tell you Erv, that whenever I enjoy a "Bolivar", which isn't very frequently at all these days I'm afraid, I ALWAYS remember Colleen. I remember her chatting with me, perhaps the day after that particular meal when I introduced her to "Simone", and Colleen telling me how she truly believed she had awakened the next morning with the flu! You, however, had enlightened her! I can stll hear her voice in my head as well as her laugh. I can't hear my father's voice anymore (although I can hear his laugh) and I have a hard time hearing Don's voice; but, I can hear Colleen's voice and laugh loud and clear. I've been remiss in not passing my condolances on to Mrs. Sutton (Theresa) whom I met when she was visiting and Colleen brought her to "camp" for a visit. I remember sitting under that "3-in-1 maple tree" with her. That, too, was another more than pleasant occasion. Somehow you'll find the strength to survive this. God doesn't give us more than we can handle I've been told. You and your husband raised a wonderful daughter and you must take pride in that. How fortunate you were to have been her mother. You raised a fine girl. Be proud. I'm so sorry I hadn't followed through on my good intentions to contact her over this last year. There really is no excuse. I have such a huge regret. Life interferes with our best laid plans. Please accept my condolances. There are no words or actions anyone can do to truly help you with your loss. You'll think of her every day for a very long time. One day though, your tear will become a smile, then a chuckle, then you'll be able to recall joyful times and actually laugh aloud. It all takes a long time. In the interim, please know you're not alone suffering this loss. Colleen was such a fine lady full of class, caring, empathy and intelligence. If there's a hereafter, and I think there is, I'm sure she was greeted at those pearly gates by her father whom she adored and perhaps even Don. Those two guys would indeed, show her the way. They'll look down on us and Colleen, at least at the beginning, will indeed be near you and her spirit will guide and comfort you and make you very much aware of her presence. She really will. If I can help you in any way, please call me. I would be honoured. I would give my eye teeth to somehow be able to help you through this terrible time where it seems the world for you had ended and the world for everyone else continues on its merry way. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Most sincerely, Donna Hagarty

I worked with Colleen for many years in Provincial Court and can attest to her strong work ethics. We spent many lunches together eating Chineese food. She was a good friend and somebody whom I could confide in. Colleen was a gentle soul and will be deeply missed. She made the best crepes in town!

I was saddened to hear this today. A dear person has passed from our lives. Colleen brought honour and respect to the courts she appeared in. She was also a great friend and source of strength to anyone who had the privilege of sharing time with her. I'll never forget her easy smile and sense of fun. Even though I'd only see her once a year or so, we kept in touch by phone or email. We would discuss our families, work issues and sometimes solve the world's problems as well. At least we thought so. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We were graced by her presence.

Dearest Goertz Family, I was so saddened to hear of Colleen's passing. Colleen and I worked together for many years at the courthouse and a nicer person I have never met. Aside from being an intelligent and diligent worker, she was sincere and friendly to all those she met. She inspired me to be a better person and for that I truly thank her. Your family must be a wonderful one because Colleen spoke of all of you very often and you were all foremost in her life. All of us will miss her dearly but feel privileged to have had Colleen in our lives.

Erv, Derek, Rachel and Abby, I am so sorry for your loss. Colleen was a ray of light in all of our lives. She was the first to give of herself to a friend in need, always selfless and expecting nothing in return. Colleen encouraged me to follow her to the City and join the newly formed POA Division. She has been a friend and confidant in my life for the last 17 years. I want you to know, through her, I knew you all as she was always speaking of her family, each and everyone of you. I want you to know this loss has left a significant void in many lives. I will miss her. Rest assured, being a woman of strong faith, she is now with our Lord, free of the confines of her human body. She will watch over you always. My deepest, deepest sympathies. Denis

My deepest sympathies to all of you. I know I don’t have to tell you what a special woman Colleen was and I am so very thankful for having known her. She was greatly loved and will be sadly missed. Sorry we are not able to attend personally but all of the Muskoka Divas are there is spirit. We will always raise a glass to Diva Colleen.
