LEWISTON — Colleen Marie (Brule) Greeley, 57, of Lewiston died peacefully on Sunday, Sept. 27, at home, surrounded by her loving family.

Colleen enjoyed spending her time with the love of her life, Steven Greeley. Together, they enjoyed going out dancing, taking long walks and going to the beach. Colleen and Steve shared a love of tattoos, and she had started quite the collection of floral, poetic and family centric pieces. She enjoyed watching her three sons grow into wonderful young men and valued the time she was able to spend with her beautiful grandchildren.
She spent a lot of love, patience and time creating and crafting special mementos for all of her family. Colleen celebrated life, cherished her family and friends and lived life to the fullest. She always had a positive outlook, which grew even stronger during the hardest times in her life.
She will lovingly be remembered as a beautiful, thoughtful and caring wife, daughter, mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. Colleen always approached her relationships with the utmost love and devotion. Her huge heart and caring will resound throughout all of the lives that she has touched.
