Pauline loved to clean, vacuum, and work hard all while managing to ask a "few" questions to whomever she was with to keep the conversation going. Pauline and Kevin enjoyed their beloved dog duos; Jack & Jill and then Buddy & Holly, those dogs were loved unconditionally and never wanted for anything, except to get out the back fence and run the neighborhood while being chased by somone! She was a kind and loving person that enjoyed her life and the people in it.
