I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with her. A beautiful lady
She was a godsend for me in regards to caring for my children. Jason and Josh both stayed with Miss Pauline until they went to school!!! When I think of Miss Pauline, I think of a sweet sweet lady that took away the worry of leaving my children in her care!!! I loved running into her even after my boys grew up!!! Yes, she will definitely be missed, but know we have gained another angel!!!
