Pauline Holdener

Dear Holdener Family: I remember Mrs Holdener from St Albert's and then OLA. She and my mom (Rosemary Price) were friends and they were quilters together. I remember Mrs. Holdener as a s sweet, kind and gentle woman. She has joined your father and all of God's angels and is looking forward to us all meeting again .

I remember Pauline as a sweet, kind, gentle person. I lived on Old Lincoln Trail next to the beginning of the long, gravel road that led to the farm house where she lived. I occasionally chatted with her as she (in her 80's) walked by my house from the farm house on her way to her mail box on Old Lincoln Trail. I got married and moved. My mother then became ill and I had to sell her house when she could no longer live there. However, I always wondered what happened to the wonderful lady who...

To the family of Pauline Holdener,
Since we can not personally visit the funeral home for your mother's wake, we wish to send our condolences via the funeral home. Although, our personal contacts with your mother have been somewhat infrequent in recent years, our memories of any visits with her are very dear and are nothing but visions of a very sweet and gentle lady.

Don, We are sorry to hear of your Mom's passing.You & your Family are in our prayers.

Aunt Pauline was such a gentle soul. She always had a smile and a kind word for you. When we were small she always treated us kids individually and always thought we were wonderful, never a burden. At my Dad's (Norman's) funeral Aunt Pauline shared some time, and comforting, insightful, personal thoughts on life, death, and afterlife. It was a difficult time for me but she lightened my spirits. She was very good at that with each person she met, I suspect. Jim Siegel

I remember Aunt Pauline's sugar cookies at Christmas time. You knew there were hers by the decorations. I also remember Mom & I taking her shopping for the dress she wore for Dick & Marie's wedding. She didn't drive, so we were glad to take her. I also remembering her children and Carl & I planning the double surprise party for their 45th wedding anniversary as well as my Mom & Dad's. That was in January 1983. They all were surprised. It was a joy to do this for them.

In Condolence

I got to know Pauline during the time my mom was living at Clinton Manor. She was a delightful person that I enjoyed talking to when visiting the facility.
