Paula K. Grijalva

Paula K. (Bacon) Grijalva, 64, of Twin Falls went home to be with our Heavenly Father on Tuesday August 27, 2013 with her loving family by her side.

Paula was born November 29, 1948 in Soda Springs, Idaho, the youngest of three daughters born to Ivan and Elma (Weighall) Bacon. In 1951 the family moved to Hansen, Idaho. Through her school years in Hansen she was very active in many things. Pep Club, Chorus and Tumbling Team were just a few of her favorites. She was high spirited and enjoyed life to the fullest.

On August 13, 1966 Paula married her best friend and lifelong companion, Jesse R. Grijalva. The next 47 years of their life was spent making amazing memories until her beloved husband parted this earth on July 26, 2013 to await her arrival in Heaven. The couple resided in Hansen most of their married years and to this union was born Jay, Jason and Stephanie Kay.

Her main focus in life was her family. She took great pride in being the best wife, mother and grandmother she could possibly be. .

She loved to hunt, fish, camp and anything in the outdoors with her family. She was a very fun, kind, caring and loving woman to anyone who came into contact with her. With her compassionate heart, she spent her working years as a CNA nurturing those in need
