Pauline worked at various companies throughout her life in the accounts payable department. She was an avid reader and especially enjoyed reading her Bible and she volunteered at her local church. Pauline worked with the Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts, and Women’s Clubs and served as a crossing guard when her children were small. Pauline would be found listening to John Denver or Barry Manilow while spending time at home with her dogs. Crafts were of particular interest to her in her younger years as was hosting family get-togethers and holiday parties. Pauline loved the Lord Jesus Christ and shared her faith with others.
