Cindy Pauler was a saint indeed among us at Portsmouth Catholic Regional School, a devoted ambassador.
She wholly and sincerely loved her family, her friends, her parish, her school and her community.
Cindy gave her heart and soul to all, and in doing so she made our world a better place. She filled it with her wit, her smile, her faith, her laughter, her kindhearted nature, her love – and yes, her brownies, too. What a master cook and baker she was.

I have only had the privilege of knowing Cindy for a short time. Her loving kindness was a ray of sunshine that followed her wherever she went and has touched the hearts and lives of so many. She will be greatly missed.

Cindy, a long term friend of my sister Janet, over the years became a loyal and dependable friend of the Thompson family. Weddings, funerals, family get-togethers, she was always available to lend a helping hand, asking for nothing in return. We remember her with fondness and wish her family peace and good memories.

—Carrie Hamilton
