    Paula was one of the most remarkable women we have ever met!
    I first met her at BLLC and a friendship remained.
    Tough was her middle name, she rarely ever complained about anything except wanting to do things better.
    A good friend who will be sadly missed by many and so pleased that Paula was a part of our life.

    Sending you all lots of hugs.

    Love Michelle

    It is with great sadness we say goodbye to our dear neighbour Paula.

    When I first moved into the neighbourhood 20 years ago, Paula, Murray and Brian instantly made me feel welcome and reassured me that if I ever needed anything, they were only next door. True to their word whenever I needed a hand, they were only too willing to help.

    Paula was the most genuinely caring, kind and generous person with a straight shooting, “tell it how it is” personality that made her one of a kind.
    We will miss her visits to drop off boxes of cucumbers and tomatoes, vegies, bread, donuts and home-made treats (relish/pickles, walnut loaf, and her famous jelly cakes to name a few). She always had something for Emi and Emi loved her dearly.

    To Jules, Brian, Deb, Bernie and families, we send our love and sincerest condolences. The neighbourhood has lost a truly wonderful person and will certainly not be the same without her.

    May she finally be at peaceful rest with her beloved Muzza

    Love Sam, Ross and Emilia xo
