Paula was the most sweet, kind, and gentle soul. She patterned her life after our Savior Jesus Christ.

She shared a very special relationship with our Heavenly Father. Paula’s faith in God and His Son was unwavering even in the midst of great pain and trials.

She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She was a best friend to all who knew and loved her, especially her husband and 7 children. Our mom’s sense of humor, smile and laughter were unmatched. She brightened every room she walked into and her presence will be deeply missed.
