I will miss Aunt Pauline more than words can express. Living so far away, I didn't get to see her often, but she was always ever present in my heart. Hardly a day went by that I didn't think of her, and she was always in my prayers. After my mother passed in 1997, she became even more special to me as she filled that void. I treasure every single momen Katie Wasileski It's wonderful to be able to celebrate her long, full life rather than mourning her passing. She will be missed terribly, but her memory will be gratly cherished in the hearts of her family and friends. She was always so strong in the face of adversity, and seemed to enjoy every day of her life..... a true "Steel Magnolia." t I spent with her over the years, and have priceless memories of our times together. It's wonderful to be able to celebrate her long, full life rather than mourning her passing. She will be missed terribly, but her memory will be greatly cherished in the hearts of her family and friends.
