Colleen Rochefort

Colleen Rochefort graced the world from June 26, 1952 to December 14, 2023. She bravely battled a cancer for over 3 years that most succumb to in months. But it wasn’t her strength
most knew her for; her compassion, her sensitivity, and her kindness helped define who she was. And Colleen kept the Catholic faith with steadfast resolve. Colleen attended Aquinas
Academy and St. Patrick’s school, and took some classes at Tacoma Community College. Colleen follows shortly behind her husband, Jerry, who sadly passed away November 8 th , a
month and a day before their 51 st wedding anniversary. Colleen met Jerry while working at the Paradise Inn on Mount Rainier, a mountain they both loved to visit. She enjoyed poetry,
sunshine, and taking in the scenic view on a long car ride. She is survived by: their son, Casey (wife, Fränzi, and grand-daughter, Joline); and brothers Tim (Sue) Brennan, and Denny
Brennan; and many other cousins, nieces, and nephews and friends that will all miss her dearly. Colleen and Jerry met at Paradise, and now they rest together forever in Paradise.
