After college she accepted a position with Xerox Corporation. Back in 1998, in Denver, Colorado, Colleen met the love of her life Daniel J. DeCrow. They moved to Fulton County in 2003, where they bought a small farm near Fulton. As best friends, on January 24, 2011, in Rochester, Colleen and Daniel J. DeCrow were married. An avid gardener, each spring Colleen planted flowers to add color to the landscape of her home. She never found a weed she couldn't pull. Colleen enjoyed feeding the hummingbird's and observing birds and wildlife found outside her home. In addition to the flowers, she had a rock garden and cactus garden to accent her backyard. As a master quilter, she was a member of Deborah's Quilting Class. Known to many as an extraordinary cook, Colleen showcased her talents at the local downtown pub, the Dugout.
