Your Mom will be greatly missed, but always remembered. May your sweet memories of her life bring you peace and comfort. Love, the Coulter Family
Dan and Tracy, thanks for your kind words. Thanks for showing for the services.
I hesitate to do this because it hits home for me that she is really gone. Aunt Pauline was a second mother to me. She was a constant presence in my life starting in childhood. She was a kind, generous, and compassionate person. She loved children. I will miss talking to her and sharing recipes, her chocolate cake and her nut rolls. Although her health was frustrating for her these past few years she never stopped talking about how she needed to scrub the kitchen floor or do a little painting, and she needed to get to the mall and buy some new living room curtains. I loved that she was not afraid to speak her mind. We had some fun political discussions.
So, smile and think of her and let us always remember the incredible person that she was.
So very sorry for Pauline’s passing. She was a good woman who always treated me kindly.
Dear Family, as I was praying this morning I thought of Aunt Pauline. So sorry for your loss. She was always so kind and welcoming; gentle caring heart. Much love, prayers for you all!
Patty Scahill, your cousin and Theresa’s daughter in Ohio🙏❤️
