It has been many years since seeing Paula, but it was always fun to see her out and about, usually purchasing plants and flowers. She was always working on a project.
Our deepest sympathies to each of you.

My deepest sympathy to the family! I worked with Paula many years ago at Northwestern Bell. She was a good friend and sadly we lost touch.
