Pauline was born in Jessup, PA on January 15, 1927 and moved to Trumbull where she resided for the past 64 years. Pauline was a strong, independent, and loving person who had given so much and asked for so little in return. She enjoyed cooking for her family, taking care of her grandchildren and spending time with her brothers and sisters. So many were touched by her generous hospitality, her fun-loving sense of humor, and her innate ability to give of herself to make others feel comfortable. Most of all she loved her family and instilled in her children strong values that have served them well. She will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
