1. Paula was a great lady! I wish I could have spent more time with her and enjoy her wicked sense of humour, sharp wit and keen intellect. Vale Paula.

2. Paula was one of my younger sisters and so much loved in our big family! She was clever, kind, had a great sense of humour and loved her family so much! She was a lovely sister, aunt, great aunt and wonderful with the little ones in the family! She was also a great traveller, very independent and feisty! So happy to have spent such quality time with her during her illness and watch how cheerful, positive and interested she stayed in the family and life in general. I will miss her sooo much, but happy that she is now free from pain and on her new spiritual journey! 🩷🌷💜🌺🌹

3. Life without Paula will be so sad. She was my big sister, smart, beautiful, kind and strong willed. A hard act for me to follow.

   Always remembered in my thought and heart. Cherie x

4. Paula was my older sister. She was an inspirational person, highly intelligent, fiercely independent and blessed with a wonderful sense of humour and a wit capable of cutting anyone down to size. She was highly protective of her family and was loving and supportive older sister and entertaining, generous and compassionate friend. She lived her life on her terms and there were few things, when she set her mind to it, she couldn’t achieve. I always thoroughly catching up with her and I loved her very much. Because she had been unwell for a while, I was fortunate to spend some of that time talking to her about the things which were imporant to her. She will be missed terribly.
