To the family members,
I did not know Pauline personally, but her father, Luther, was my great-grandparents son. I feel that all of the Caldwell's were wonderful people.
Please accept my sympathy for the loss of your loved one. Her beautiful face tells me that she was a precious lady.
Love and Prayers

I have so many memories of Grandma Bishop, spending the night at her house, watching her cook and her letting me help, eating Thanksgiving dinner at the dining room table with the whole family. I was her step grandchild but she treated me no different from the others,I loved & respected her so very much. She lived a full and happy life and now she is resting in peace with the ones that past before her, I know her memory will live for ever. Ray & Stormy God bless you both for taking such good care of her.

Pauline was Baw Baw to her grandchildren, the memories of the wonderful baked goods and smells coming from the kitchen will always be with me. If I could only perfect her brown sugar pie the way she did. I am blessed to be her granddaughter. God has gained another angel.
