She was born Oct. 24, 1950 in Lubbock, Texas to Paul and Dorothy Graham. She was a graduate of Lubbock High School. Paula was passionate about her work with her extended family whom she worked with in disaster relief - Ralton Baker, Louie Wallace, and Buddy Fuzzell, and others across the United States. She did bookkeeping, payroll, got permits and worked with local government agencies. Paula began work with them following the May 3, 1995 tornadoes, through 2002, when illness prevented her from working in a career she loved. She loved to travel and did so with her mother, sister and brother, and with her friend Lu Ann Rutledge, Trophy Club, Texas, who was at her side through most of her brave fight with cancer. Paula had two businesses - The Plant Peddler, a retail garden store in Tuttle, and later as proprietor of "Sister's Plum," homemade jams, jellies and sauces. She worked as an office manager/veterinary tech for Dr. Mike Wiley in Moore, and as a teller at Friendly Bank in southwest Oklahoma City. Paula loved her family, her grandchildren, her horses and cats. She is survived by her father, Paul and wife Juanita Graham, Meeker, her sons Aaron McLeroy, and fiancee' Misty Burdick, Tuttle, Jarod and his wife Heather McLeroy, grandchildren Callie, Brynn, and Cullen McLeroy, Carrizo Springs, TX, and her sons father, Ronnie McLeroy, Oklahoma City, sister Diane and her husband Moody Hughes, Tuttle, brother David and his wife Ellen Graham, Oklahoma City.
