My thoughts are with all members of the Tolan family. My mother Lucille had many happy memories of Pauline’s childhood that she enjoyed sharing with me. I will always remember Aunt Pauline’s famous smile and her wonderful energy.
“Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there leaves a trail of beautiful memories”.
Pauline, I so enjoyed discovering your life’s history. Learning how you met the love of your life whom you married and had a wonderful lifetime with. Raising a large family with which you travelled to the cottage and Florida frequently and the dancing and fun that pursued. We even talked about how many sandwiches you had to make in a week for lunch while the kids were in school!! And somehow you managed to fit in golf and curling, etc. I honestly do not know how you did it; you were what I would call fierce with a mixture of grace and sweetness!
Our deepest condolences to your family.
Joy and Nick

Thank you to all for looking after our mom. We were very lucky knowing she was receiving the best care.
Thank you for keeping her comfortable and safe in her last few days.
