COLLEEN SAVAGE October 21, 1963 – March 10, 2019
Colleen was born in Woodbury, New Jersey and spent her formative years in Deptford Twp., New Jersey. As a young girl, Colleen was known as a firecracker and had lots of adventures. She was a carefree and loving person who made friends wherever she lived, from Boston to Florida. She was a great cook and liked to share her culinary creations with close friends. She was a talented artist and lover of music, especially Rock. Colleen loved her family with all her heart and enjoyed spending time with them at every opportunity. Holidays were most important. She most recently lived in Hudson, Florida with her little Chihuahua, Spike. She spent a lot of time with her mother, watching movies and going to restaurants and the theater. Colleen left a lasting impression on anyone who knew her. If you mention the name, Colleen Savage, EVERYONE has a memory. She left us at the age of fifty-five, leaving a hole in our hearts and too many adventures unfulfilled.
Colleen was the daughter of Rita Anne and Valentine Pacheco; David and Janis Savage; Sister to four siblings; Bonnie Savage Rapposelli (Raymond), Michael Savage, Gabriella Pacheco Jack (Jeffrey), Valerie Pacheco Coulter (Joseph)Godmother to Randy Rapposelli, Aunt to many nieces and nephews, dearest friend of James (Wolfe) Reilly and Mommy to her loving doggie, Spike.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

My prayers and thoughts go out to family. Even though I never met Colleen, Janis always spoke so sweetly of her. Please forward my condolences to Dave, Bonnie, and Michael. Rest in peace beautiful Colleen. You are a angel for family now, so please watch over them.

Colleen my long time friend. I was heartbroken when I heard of your passing. We began our friendship in the first grade at the Valley school. I enjoyed the times we would go to lunch over your grandparents house or when your father will pick us up when he was working in the area and take us to lunch or the time I would go to your
mothers house when she lived on Ogden Road they were great times we were in junior high school we called ourself Ebony and Ivory.I have such wonderful memories with you as we left high school we lost
touch and approximately five
years ago we found each other again we met up and we had a awesome time catching up .
I know you were no longer in
pain you are with our heavenly
father until we meet again
love you ,Tondelaya’
