Pauline Boffi Obituary

Pauline Susan Boffi
April 20, 1940 - June 30, 2020
Pauline Susan Boffi, native daughter of San Francisco, CA, born April 20, 1940 to August and Sue Johnson, died June 30, 2020. She transitioned peacefully in Antioch, CA, supported by family and nurturing caregivers at Friendship Care Home. Pauline came of age in the Outer Sunset district, attending Francis Scott Key, AP Giannini, and was a proud Eagle graduate of Washington High School. She dedicated her career life to the City and County of SF as a meter maid, back in the day when they rode on three-wheeled motorcycles. Pauline's golden years were spent uplifting her Bay Area family and SF community. Her retirement in San Francisco was rooted in nurturing her grandchildren, supporting her children, and connecting to neighbors and friends. With lovingkindness for the poor, Pauline devoted regular time at Saint Anthony's Dining room, and worshiped and served in various projects at Holy Name Catholic Church. She loved travel, especially taking daily strolls around the Outer Sunset with her beloved dogs and creating memories with family and friends in Camp Mather, Hawaii, Mexico, and Palm Springs. Pauline is survived by her daughter Maggie Murtagh (Tim), her son Paul Davies (Julie), her sister Barbara Johnson Fisher, close family Donna Davies (Rick), dear friends including Carol Elliot Maloof and Connie Davies, and her precious granddaughters Mackenzie, Madison, Sarah and Maya whom she adored. She was a friend of Bill W. Prayerful intentions or donations would delight Pauline Susan Boffi, who made San Francisco a brighter, kinder and gentler place.
