I'll always remember Paula Cohen, before she married, since we were in the Senn High School Class of June 1960. I'll always remember what a lovely, intelligent face she had back in the day. She was a smart one, but she was a well-rounded person, who made time for friends and family; she loved to engage in conversation and she had such a lovely, outgoing personality. May her passing be for a blessing.

I´m so sorry for your loss. Paula was truly one of a kind and I enjoyed the time we worked together at Niles North. Sending prayers and hugs.

I'm very sorry to hear about Paula who I've known for 60+ years. We go 'way back to Victoria House in Madison. We didn't talk frequently but when we did, we always got caught up on each other's families. She was so proud of all of you. I'm sorry I can't attend the service Sunday, but both my husband and I will be thinking of you.
