Read MorePaulette was there for me when my dad died. And for the 20 years that passed from then, I grew to love our chats when I dropped in and interrupted her solitaire game, the days she would spend hanging out to borrow our machinery, the "Love ya babe" at the end of a phone call. And though it really hurts to say goodbye to her, I feel blessed to have had her in my life.
I pray for peace and comfort to you all.

Dear Lillis Family,
Worked with Paulette when I was AD at West Catholic from 1998-2006. We always had fun and she made sure everything was done RIGHT. Sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful woman.

So very sorry for your loss. I remember as a small girl walking to school at St Adalberts every day with Paulette. What a wonderful time we had. Lost touch after many years I'm sorry to say. She was a special person to so many and I've thought of her so many times through the years. Wishing you all God's grace.
