Dear Garry and Family,
I have lost another friend and former classmate and am sad right with you. The last time I spoke to Paulette was about a month ago after my neighbor and I had been chatting over coffee about milk delivery... It reminded me about Mr. Otte and had me wondering where he got the milk that he delivered so faithfully in Big River. Paulette filled me in (with Garry's help in the background...) and we had a great visit.
My memories go back to walking to school all those years, being in the same classroom and the camaraderie we all had and, of course, how Garry and Paulette jived so well together just as they "jived" generally in life.
Paulette fought the good fight with the support of her faithful family and friends. The words that were chosen in her obituary say it all so well.
"Life will be different now but not impossible." I believe she is painfree and at peace.
