PAULINE HOBAN, daughter of Stanley and Dorothy (Pisarski) Lempicki, was born June 17, 1956, in Chicago, Illinois and departed this world on June 21, 2025, at her home in Lebanon, Missouri, surrounded by her loving family.

On May 16, 1981, Pauline was united in marriage with the love of her life, Douglas Michael Hoban, Sr. Together they shared forty-four years of precious memories, while raising their two sons.

Pauline was a devoted homemaker, and the needs of her family always came first. She enjoyed ceramic painting and was an avid Chicago sports fan. She loved her pets and in younger years enjoyed reading, especially romance novels. However, nothing compared to the time spent and laughter shared with her family. She loved them deeply and unconditionally.

Pauline is survived by her husband, Doug; two sons, Doug Hoban, Jr. and his wife Jennifer and Scott Hoban, all of Lebanon, MO; one brother, Stanley Lempicki, Jr. and his wife Jan of Chicago, IL; one sister, Diane Fitzpatrick and her husband Bob of Mount Gilead, OH; three grandchildren, Tristan Walker and her husband, Dustin, Madison Black and her husband, Tayler, and Levi Hoban; five great-grandchildren, Tylan, Raylynn, Karson, Briksten and Basil; brothers and sisters-in-law, James Hoban and his wife Beth of Honolulu, HI, Charlene Simpson of Carlsbad, CA; and Debbie Hoban of Boynton Beach, FL; numerous nieces and nephews; other relatives and many friends.

Those preceding her in death include her parents; one brother, Douglas Lempicki; and two brothers-in-law, Donald Hoban and Lloyd Simpson.

Pauline was a wonderful wife, loving mother, fun-loving grandmother, cherished sister and loyal friend. She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who knew and loved her.
