Paula made Lebanon her hometown nearly 35 years ago and grew to be a staple in the community. She loved people, which opened the way for her to become a grandma to families across the community as she took on the role of caretaker and childcare provider to countless kids. A close second to her love for others was her cooking. Her door was always open—and if you walked through it, you better be ready to eat! Paula was a member of the Lebanon Christian Fellowship Mennonite Church. Her lively character and her firm faith make her a great example for the family and friends she leaves behind.
