Pauline was such a beautiful soul. She called me her guardian angel. I rescued her one morning. I was getting my kids ready for school and I got a call from her grandson telling me he needed me to check on her. I ran out to my back yard callinger name and I heard a wimpier. I couldn't just climb the fence because it was a tall flimsy one so I grabbed the ladder and jumped it. I got to her and she was in tears and bleeding. I held her as I picked her up and walked her inside. She ended up being fine but that is my memory of Pauline. She was my sweet nabior. I loved her!
