Colleen Rife Freedman, 71, of New Cumberland, passed on July 31, 2024, at 10:21 AM, surrounded by her loving family. Colleen was born on April 27, 1953, and was a graduate of Red Land High School. Colleen retired after 20 years of service from the American Legion Post 143, where she was the post manager. Additionally, she served as the Past President of the Ladies Auxiliary.
Colleen enjoyed camping, trips to the beach, playing games with her family, and watching the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Penguins, but what she loved most was playing with her grandkids.
Surviving is her husband of 32 years, Dennis Freedman; son, Chester J. Barrick (Lindsie Barrick), of York Haven; daughter, Cassie J. Boyer (Nathan Boyer), of York Haven; and one brother, John W. Mickle III (Barb Mickle) of New Cumberland. Also surviving are her six grandchildren, Zach, Zoie, Colin, Megan, Emma, and Elijah, who were truly her pride and joy, along with her many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Colleen was preceded in death by her father, the late John Warren Mickle Jr., and mother, Dorothy Jean Mickle.
A memorial service will be held at 11AM on Tuesday, August 6, 2024, at Trinity Church of New Cumberland, with a visitation hour from 10AM until services begin in the church. A luncheon will follow in the church's social hall. Interment will be private and held at a later date in Tri-County Memorial Gardens, Lewisberry.
