Paulette went on to serve her community as an elementary teacher in the Twin Cities in the South Washington County school district. She was a well-liked teacher who touched many children’s lives over the years. She loved her time with her family, friends and cherished every opportunity connecting with her grandchildren who loved Grandma Paulette dearly. She cherished her time with friends playing mahjongg or just meeting for coffee.
