Pauline will be remembered most for her beautiful blue eyes, her competitive and lighthearted spirit, her devotion and loyalty to family and work as well as her unwavering can-do attitude. She had a lifelong love of the West Virginia mountains and never abandoned her country roots. In her early years in MD, Pauline enjoyed playing golf and tennis, boating on the Chesapeake, sewing, camping, and hiking the Appalachian Trail. Throughout her life, she was an avid reader, accomplished cook, lover of gospel and country music, nature and wildlife, gardening, walking, creative writing and any activity shared with loved ones. She prided herself on being an independent, smart, resourceful country girl who could kill a snake or bake a cake. She kept her wicked sense of humor until the end and was so grateful for her blessed life even with all its challenges.
