Oh Carol, I am just now seeing that your Mom passed away. I am so sorry for your loss. She was a kind generous lady. I remember when I first met her at her Elmsdale store. Never a time that she wasn’t gracious and smiling. Hold tight to all the wonderful memories. Take care. Debbie Pike

I so saddened to hear about Paula! Paula generously offered her MC services for Timeless & Twist and Geri’s Charity Fashion shows over last the few years and offered lots guidance and advice when I opened my own shop including covering me for my first vacation from the store! It is fitting that our last Fashion was held for Young Adult Cancer Canada and here she is behind the podium while a young survivor walks the runway. I hope she would be pleased to see this picture. Sincere condolences. Donna

I will always remember Paula for introducing me to “pork pies”. She knew I had no idea what they were..I thought they were like Stake and a Kidney pies. What a treat when she brought me over the most delicious tarts.
Sorry for your loss

Gerald, Shirley, Colleen and Family,
Sending my condolences on, Paula's passing. I remember meeting her at Farrell family gatherings, including Colleen and Brad's wedding and enjoying her energy and enthusiasm. She was obviously very devoted to her family and she also must have had a special kind of initiative and drive to be such a successful entrepreneur for so many years. A special woman indeed.
Thinking of you at this time.

We met Paula when we lived at the Crossing in Enfield. She was such a nice lady, very friendly, she always welcomed you to her home, which was quite beautiful. She loved her fur babies so much. We used to watch her walk them by our place every day. She would lift your spirits just by her smile. She will be missed by so many. You are now reunited with your husband whom you missed so very much. Rest in peace Paula.

Dear Carol,
I was sorry to read of Paula's passing. I have great memories of being greeted by her at the store in Elmsdale; and of course, the many fashion shows. She always had a smile and friendly chat for everyone. Her light will continue to shine in our memories and in her family.
She will be missed by all who knew her, but none more than you, as the bond between mother and daughter is a special one. May it bring some comfort to you to know our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time when community cannot come together in person to support each other.
Sending sincere condolences to you and all the family.
Michelle, Peter & family

I remember going into Paula's store and usually came out buying one of her many outfits. You never had to worry about someone else having the same outfit. She only carried one of each. Paula always greeted you with a smile on her face, when you entered her shop. A wonderful lady. My condolences to all the family members. Many memories and stories I am sure you all have of Paula.

Dear Family of Paula,
Paula was an inspirational woman; a woman of great strength and character.
I first knew about Paula when she had the business "Paula's Fashions & Gifts" in Elmsdale. Paula's products were quality; indeed she was a woman of excellence. I purchased a beautiful picture of a woman and baby when my sister had a baby. For a wedding gift, I received a large ceramic green bowl set that could go in the oven from the store. Twenty years later, I still have and use the bowl; it outlasted the marriage. Though I did not know Paula personally at that time, the gifts from her store were a part of happy occasions.
When I attended a fashion show Paula did to support breast cancer I saw a woman who was organized, well-spoken, caring, and generous of her time to supporting communities, people, and a worthy cause. It was one of many fashion shows she did to help. Paula was fashion savvy and witty.
I went to work for Whitney Sales and worked for her husband Ray, and it was there that I came to know Paula. Ray and Paula, both from Whitney Pier, were a dynamic duo. I adored them both. Ray and Paula loved their family and I came to meet their
children Carol, Ray Jr., Robert, Bruce and sister Margaret. They spoke highly of their grandchildren and family. When Ray suffered an injury, Paula was there by his side to support him and to direct the business during his absence. Paula's nature was direct and clear and she was a pleasure to work for during a very difficult time in her life. She demonstrated great leadership and when she gave a compliment, it was whole-hearted and sincere.
My sincere sympathy to the family. Paula was a rock and someone I admired very much!
