She loved to tell stories and sing hymns. Pauline was the keeper of memories, the maker of everyday miracles, and had a smile that made each day a little brighter. The world is a more beautiful place because of her. Pauline is survived by her two daughters and their spouses, Juanita Vaughn and Louise (John) Douglas; many grandchildren and many great-grandchildren. She will be greatly missed.
