The soft smile she ALWAYS had on her face everytime we crossed each other's paths. We managed somehow to find something to laugh about when we crossed each other's paths. A "Woman of God" is what she was; she will be missed but Great Joy found in the memories of her!

Took me a minute to do this because I still can´t believe you´re gone. The thing I will always remember about my Aunt is she was always upbeat and cooler than a fan. Luv you Aunt Pauline! You will be missed.

I remember when Pam stayed on 14th Ave Mrs Pauline and I would sit and talk on the porch just about life. She was such a sweet person, had a smile for you and a word she will truly be missed.

To the Nelson family,
It has been an honor and a blessing to have known Miss Nelson and some of the members of her family. Let us all remember her life lessons and follow her examples and most of all, walk in faith. This is how we can honor Miss Pauline Nelson's life.
God bless you now and always.

My sincere condolences goes out to Pam, Pooh and all of the children. Pauline was a Sister to me and always looked out for me. When she was working and got paid and bought her children something she would buy me something. She would take me to the store with her. I love Pauline dearly When I moved back home and they would come home for Mother´s Day and Family Reunion we always had some one on one time and talked about the "good old days " I was looking forward to seeing her in a couple of months.
Pauline inspired me to wear my makeup every day because you never know who you are going to see.

Ms. Pauline, treated me like one of her daughters. I'm grateful for the love and kindness that she showed me. To know her is to love her.
Ms. Pauline helped me through some rough times in my life, and for that I will forever hold the wonderful memories of her in my heart.
I will miss her calls and seeing her jazzy outfits.
Love you ma,
Mattiee

I have fond memories of Aunt Pauline, and her children from my childhood . I felt loved and accepted by her, and her children. I saw Pauline, Pam and Tara a few years ago, after not seeing them for years. The love was as genuine as I remember from my childhood.
My condolences to the family for your loss, and my gratitude for fond memories. RIP Paulina
