We will think of you fondly, Auntie Pauline! I remember Florida/Ft Myers trips with our Nan (Pearl) and walking around with you and Uncle Sam, heading to the pool, beach, dinners etc. A caring and loving woman who meant a lot to our family.

Rest in peace and enjoy a beverage with your loved ones up there. You are in our thoughts - sincere condolences to your family.

Pauline was a beautiful lady very kind and gentle and happy. Mike and I spent a lot of evenings together with them. We had so much fun. We would sit and talk Mike and Sal would talk over old times together. We would make the tea or coffee and sit with them and listen to them talk . Pauline always had something home baked and ready with our tea or coffee. She was a wonderful person. Rest in Peace my dear friend. We will miss you .
