by Colleen King Death, Obituary – Because of the demise of Colleen King, a close friend of ours as well as a coworker, we are left with a heavy heart and a profound sense of loss. It is with the deepest regret that we have to let you know about this turn of events. Colleen passed away in the early hours of Sunday morning this past week, bringing an end to her life. Colleen was a cheerful and joyful woman who had been an essential component of Cardinal ever since the year 2014. When she first started working with us, she was given the task of managing our facility in Logansport.
After we opened a second office in Rochester, we gave her the additional responsibility of managing both of those locations. She has a well-deserved reputation for being able to bring order out of the most disorganized of circumstances in a way that no one else can. Colleen racked up her Direct Help Professional (DSP) hours and went on a lot of outings with the people she valued working with because she appreciated the mission of Cardinal and, in particular, the people that we support. She did this because she has a strong concern for the neighborhood that receives our assistance.
Our sincerest condolences go out to her family, particularly to her daughter Angie, who is also employed by Cardinal and works as a residential supervisor, as well as to all of the Cardinal staff members who knew and loved Colleen. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. During this trying time, we want her daughter Angie, who also has a job at Cardinal, to know that we are thinking about her and offering our deepest condolences. It has been wonderful having her here with us, and we are going to miss that.
