I will always remember Pauline Melichar as a wise and loving mother to her daughters. When I was around her she always had a smile on her face, and a great laugh. She was always a very caring mother to her girls. She will be missed and remembered by all who knew her.

I'll always have special memories of Gram (Thelma) and Spike taking us to see Pauline and Sid (going to Chesapeake Bay, talking about the Redskins, etc) when I was little. I hope that her and Sid and Spike are together now just like the old days. They were all very special people.

I will always remember my Sister-in-law and the good times we shared together with Sid and Spike. I am sure they are all together now and having a good time.

Angels live forever, far beyond our days on earth. And every soul receives a guardian angel at birth. Invisible, these angels never leave us day or night. They know our fears and whisper "Everything will be all right." They give us strength and purpose, keep our hope and courage strong. They fill our minds with wisdom and our spirits with a song. And when the time in this world comes to reach our journey's end, our angel walks beside us like a kind, familiar friend. And as we leave behind the earthly place that we have known, we see our angel's smile at last and hear "You're home...you're finally home." Your loved one has been guided gently home.

Mom was my angel here on earth, and now in heaven, watching over me with her love.

I miss my Mother-in-law, Pauline. I have no words. I know that Pauline and Sid are together and happy. That means everything is alright in the universe.

Pauline, You are missed and loved. You are in my heart and thoughts. The world has lost a wonderful person and heaven has become even better now with you. Enjoy your internal life with Sid.
