We have not known Pauline in person, but we do know her sisters Gladys and Diane.
Like most that choose a profession of caring for others in the way she did, it is a true loss when they themselves do happen to pass.
We wish her family and friends a lot of strength in support of the loss and remind them that they should cherish the memories they have of Pauline.
No-one can take those away.
