Memorial Bench for Colleen M. Powers

Hello,

My name is Paris, my grandmother Colleen M. Powers passed peacefully on Wednesday, July 7, 2021. She was an incredible wife, mother, grandma, ahma, sister, aunt and dear friend. Her heart and her generosity knew no bounds! Her memory will always be with us, and her legacy will continue through her family and close friends. She will be greatly missed!

In honor of her, we would like to raise money for a memorial bench at the Como Conservatory in the peaceful Centennial Garden (open year-round). We are looking to raise $5,000 for a bench and plaque. By having this memorial bench, all her loved ones will be able to visit this special place and remember her.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations towards the memorial bench. Any additional funds will be donated to the American Cancer Society.

If you would like to donate, you can do so through this GoFundMe account or directly to the Como Conservatory by check payment or by visiting this website, https://comofriends.org/give/donation/ . If you are contributing through Como , please make sure to note you are donating “in memory of Colleen M. Powers”.
