My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family of Paula. She was a teacher’s aid when my youngest son, Evan, was @ Weirton Heights Elementary school and we followed Matt’s progress through sports and especially baseball @ the termite fields. I pray God keeps you close to his heart during this most difficult of times. Matt, I know your a strong young man and to lose both parents @ such a young age is not fair, I wish you many happy days ahead and know you will triumph over this tragedy.

MaryKay and Paula’s Family, Paula and I were 2nd cousins – our moms’were 1st cousins.) Paula and I were same age. I met her numerous times as a child when my family would vs my mom’s numerous sisters/other relatives in Steubenville. Maybe I last saw her 40+ yrs. ago when Fr.Stanley became a Msgr. ??? I moved fr. Ohio in my early 20s, and with our busy lives, we never kept in touch. I DO REMEMBER that we laughed A LOT as kids and teenagers..(I dyed my hair blonde so it could look like hers-but could never get the color right!!!). We always had fun together! I was so saddened to hear of her passing. Had no idea she was so ill. (I moved fr. Ohio in my 20s,and never had a chance to ret. to Steubenville. My deepest sympathy for her family. My mom Veronica (89) is now in a nsg. home in Jefferson,OH and I just vs her over Mother’s Day. Had I been in town longer, my brother,sister and I would have attended her service. Paula is in our prayers. Mary (Maxse) Bieber
