My sister, Joan Richard, was a neighbor of Pauline's for years and always spoke of her in the highest terms. I had attended St. Mary's High School with her sister, Yvette, and had great respect for the St. Jeans. May Pauline rest in peace. Jackie Callahan Placona

Hello
I worked with Pauline many years ago at Merchant's Bank. I'll never forget her wonderful sense of humor and her great giggle that would turn into a laugh. She was a wonderful person and we were lucky to know her. My sincere condolences.

Ron, Your mom was a joy and a delight to us, and she has been missed dearly since she left Dover. I will fondly remember the little rides around town in her car or mine and the long talks on the front porch. She will be missed. We'll see you in Dover this summer.

Hi Ronnie- My deepest sympathies to you and your family. I remember fondly all the fun times growing up on Grove Street: skiing down Bonneau's hill, basketball over the garage-breaking a window and running (I think Ann did that!), and just being kids. See you this summer in Dover.
