Colleen Kirkpatrick is the eleventh of twelve children of Chloe Harris and Franklin Hawks.
She was reared in Huntsville, UT on the family farm where she learned how to work hard and do with what she had. She loved the quiet country and going on long walks by herself where she learned the art of enjoying her own company.
Colleen married Lee Roy Kirkpatrick (Scotty) in Norman, Oklahoma. They called many places home over their 55 years together, living in Utah, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Idaho, and Washington and they were blessed with four children.
Colleen was a self-taught seamstress. She was a talented and creative designer and pattern maker. She worked at several manufacturing companies, but especially enjoyed her years at Coleman Knitting Mills in Ogden where she designed cheerleader uniforms and letterman jackets. She could tell you the colors and mascots of any high school or college in the nation. She worked in the design department for Saddleman Inc. in South Carolina for 5 years.
After retiring at 70, they moved back to Logan. Following LeeRoy's death in 1999, she moved to Carl Inoway Senior Housing in Logan. She loved living next to the river and enjoyed all the "good people" there.
She leaves behind; her children, 21 grandchildren and 37 great-grandchildren. She was looking forward to seeing her first great-great-grandson in February.
She is preceded in death by: her husband; parents; brothers, Floyd, Ralph, Daniel, Claude, Norman; and sisters, Bliss, Strevell, Ruth, Norma, and June.
