    Dear Ruth, needless to say I was shocked to hear about Paulette’s passing. I am so very sorry you both were inseparable. I can’t imagine how much you are going to miss her. I will try to make the funeral but can’t make any promises. Don’t know if you heard or not but Connie had a stroke the end of April and after some rehab in Shiloh she came to stay with Virgil and I and is still here. It effected her right side but she is doing pretty good. Hopefully will get back home in the next couple of months. Again I am so sorry about Paulette. She was a great play mate back in the day.Sending hugs, Diane Detmer Jansen

    Dear Ruth, I am so sorry to hear Paulette has passed. I have many beautiful memories of you two girls and your mom and dad as neighbors on the farm. I know she will be remembered by many for her kindness. Sincerely, Theresa ( Detmer) and Ken Nordmann.

    Paulette was a very special friend and person. Always asking about you and your family.
    We had a lot of laughs. I am very fortunate to get to know her when I worked. Paulette
    Always had a smile on her face that was very contagious. I’ll miss you my friend.

    Ruth,
    I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you. I will miss seeing her on Saturday evenings. She was such a kind and caring person. I really loved her. I will try and make it to her service. Lori works so I am not sure. I know you are going to miss her, such an amazing sister. God bless!
    Lorraine.
