Dear Shannon and Kristina, I was sorry to hear about your mother. Paula will be remembered fondly by all of us as a classmate everyone liked, a beautiful girl, and a lovely, graceful person. She was always bright and I’m so impressed that she applied her intellect to helping others. She touched many lives in a positive way, not only in our growing up years in school, but as an adult. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Bonnie

Shannon & Christina are with you. I knew your mother when she was a toddler all the way through high school. Our mothers would get together and we kids would all have a great time. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Shannon and Christina, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your mother and I grew up together and had many great memories. She will be missed greatly by all that knew her. She will always be with you two, the lights of her life.
Paula may you rest in peace until we all meet again, and we will. You will be missed. My heart goes out to your daughters as they struggle with the loss of their beloved Mother and friend. Peace be with you all in your time or sorrow.
Shannon and Christina-I am so very sorry for your loss-I know you girls had an amazing bond with your mom. Watch for signs-I know Paula will be sending them to let you know she is still with you always. I’ll be praying for you…Tracy (worked with Paula in Satanta)
Paula you were a wonderful mother, grandmother, sister, cousin, and friend. Your beautiful smile and sense of humor will be missed. Good memories of growing up with you as a major part of my life. Shannon and Kristina, your mother was so proud of both of you. I could hear the smile in her voice when she talked about each of you. I know she is in a better place but that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye. My heartfelt sympathies for all of your family.
I remember the threesome-Debbie, Paula and Mona. They have been friends since they were young girls hanging around together and dancing in the living room when we were growing up. You were well loved, Paula, and they will miss you so much. Your suffering is over-go in peace and God bless you and your family.
Heaven has another angel. Rest in Peace, free from pain, Paula. We love you.
Your kindness and compassion (and your dorky sense of humor!) live on in your daughters. amazing young women.
