Pauline was a living angel and we will miss her enthusiasm for life. We were blessed to have known her and we will always remember our 2000 Millennium celebration in Georgia with Pauline and Alice. Everyone was expecting major disasters and we were celebrating a wonderful new year coming in.

I highly respect her fantastic relationships with her daughters and grandchildren that many families will never experience. I admire her tenacity to travel and see the world with such passion. God now has his angel back and I am confident that she will be in many people's hearts forever.

Glory be to God for such a wonderful soul and a passionate servant of Christ.

Much love and prayers to her wonderful family.

I will always hold cherished memories of Auntie Pauline. To me, She is always the positive, dynamic center of Her extended family and the very definition of altruism.
From North Beach and Ballard in the '40's to Edmonds, Kittitas, and return to Seattle, Her presence will always remain with all who knew and loved Her.

My dearest friend Pauline V. and I go back as friends before we were married. Attending University Christian Church in Seattle with our then boy friends,Robert Davison and Woodrow Wilson, both later becoming our wonderful caring husbands.
When I was terrible ill with a heart condition and confined in bed, it was Pauline who left her father in law in care of her daughters in Edmonds while she came and each day gave me a bed bath, rubbed my back, prepared food for me and things for dinner to help "Woody at night" and even did the washing and Ironing, in those days we didn't have wash and drys, and when I fussed she was doing to much she would answer, mine are already taken care of.
Later I was to learn from Bob, Her laundry was piled in baskets in the closet.
Pauline followed the Golden Rule, God others and her self third.
I am sure she sits at the right hand of God and takes care of his over load.

We all Loved Pauline! Over the years did not get to see her as often as we would have liked so really looked forward to her xmas letter every year. She wrote just as she spoke and you always felt you were the only one she was speaking to. Always so upbeat and personable. She leaves happy memories with sadness that she has moved on. Love to you all Sheila and Bruce Berreth and family

Davison family- Pauline is the best! She helped me so much as did Carol during my CWU college years and after when my husband was deployed -always an open door and a friendly smile- I took care of the house with Simba when Mt. ST Helens erupted and oh what an experience that was. My daughters now aged 26 and 28 still remember the big rope swing at the Kittitas home. Love to you all.
