Pauline Thumm Obituary
Born in Boston, Mass., on July 3, 1927, she was the daughter of the late Joseph and Rose Anna (Thuot) Ouellette.
Pauline and Walter met after Walter's World War II military service, and on June 7, 1952, they were married in Methuen, Mass. Together they celebrated more than 64 wonderful years of marriage. She spent her early married years supporting Walter, and raising their two children, Micheal and Paula. Later, she greatly enjoyed her role as grandmother and great- grandmother. She had a great love of family and a desire to help family members in any way that she could.
She enjoyed cooking and baking, sewing, knitting and crocheting things for everyone, and always adding to her collection of frog trinkets! Her unconditional love for family was always evident in everything that she did!
In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her beloved husband, Walter.
Family members include her children, Micheal Walter Thumm (Patricia Ann Harrington Thumm) of Lexington Park, Md., and Paula Marie Fuller (Mark J. Fuller) of Alton; five grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and nieces, nephews and friends.
