I got acquainted when I get married to her Neice Debbie in 2007 and I could always count on a big hug and smile everytime I was around her. Paula will be missed very much and I am thankful for all the time I have known her and times spent together. I got to take her on a ride on the Harley to Bikes Blues & Bar B Q and will always have that special memory from that day with her a long with many others. Heaven got a special lady and I love her so much and she will be missed deeply.

Paula June my Cousin and Sister I never had we will all miss her daily and love her always.
I knew Margaret for a few short years, but every time I spoke with her over the phone or in my office, we ended up talking for at least an hour, sometimes a couple.
She had one of those personalities that made me feel as if we’d been friends for years. I will miss her.
To her family, I’m so sorry for your loss. She was a genuinely a lovely woman.
I meet Paula back in 2009 at Monarch while my husband was recruiting in Fayetteville. Paula was always so sweet, caring and could alway make me smile. I loved that we alway keep in contact with each other no many where I was. She will be missed dearly! Love you my Pauletta ❤️😇
Paula was my sister in law and I loved her like a sister. She will be missed.

Sorry Diane for your loss .
