In Loving Memory of Colleen Dennis Rennie
Colleen first saw the light of day on 26th January, 1946, and finally closed her eyes on 4th March, 2024. Those brown eyes fairly sparkled in reflecting her many splendored world across her 78 years.
Colleen was an only child of missionary and united empire loyalist heritage. From childhood she exhibited a deep understanding and love for all creatures great and small. She excelled as an equestrian and was rarely without a beloved horse and well-indulged dog. She embraced the role of a single mother with grace and resilience, and worked as a graphic artist before joining the staff of the Brampton Salvation Army as a Family Violence Counselor at their Emergency Shelter. Her professional journey was marked by compassion and dedication, touching the lives of many individuals in need.
In the early 1900s, Colleen’s grandmother purchased 400 acres of Kinmount’s cedar and pine forest. It was this Dutch Line property and the broader Kinmount community which rooted Colleen’s upbringing and established her love of the outdoors and of the water. Here, after retirement, she and Desmond designed, built, and gloried in their log home. Despite facing challenges along the way, including a diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, Colleen approached life with courage, humour, strength and a loud, joyous whinny.
The family of Colleen and Desmond invite you to join with them in celebrating the life of Colleen Dennis Rennie at The Log House Dutch Line Road, Kinmount on Friday, April 5, 2024 from 10:30 am until 12:30 pm. A short ceremony will begin at 11:00 am. A private dispersal of ashes will occur later in the day. For those who cannot attend, a Zoom meeting is available, please click the “URL” link below:
