Who She Was
Her Story
Christina Joyce Colon, a McCaskey High School graduate and Lancaster city resident, and her unborn child were killed in July 2004.
Colon’s body was found in a York County quarry, eight days after she was reported missing.
Colon’s family recalled her “wonderful sense of humor” and musical talent.
Colon’s “Silent Witness” display includes a stroller and toy bear to commemorate her unborn daughter – and the many children lost in deadly acts of domestic violence.
Colon, who was three months’ pregnant, had already bought a Beethoven for Baby CD and blanket, very much looking forward to being a mother.
