Paula was a graduate of Harding High School and had a work history of 25 years with her last job being at Peerless Dry Cleaners.

Paula loved arts and crafts and loved being active around town. This included going to the local shows downtown and attending the outdoor events such as Third Thursdays in the summer. She loved to go on walks and often walked along the Tall Grass Trail, where she could enjoy being outdoors and one with nature. Paula was very driven and known for her determined personality. Paula was an animal lover but has had a special place in her heart for cats and loved her “Jasper” and “Holly” until the end!
