To Chris, Jordan & my grandkids, Brandon & Christiana life has no sorrows that God can´t heal. I know you are hurting knowing your mother & grandmother is no longer here. Her flesh is gone, but her spirits will always live in your hearts. Paulette was a very sweet person her life and love was not in vain she lived the life that God had planned. It breaks my heart to know she´s no longer here, but " To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" "Hello grandma" was what we would say to each other whenever we was together. Two proud grandmothers as well as good friends. A collector of many things that she leaves behind, and now she´s collecting her treasures in heaven. Rest in Peace mother, grandmother, & friend for your life & love will live in Us All forever
