Paulene was such a giant force inside a small body. She was passionate, kind, funny, and fair, and I have many happy memories of drinking raspberry and lemonades with her watching the St. Pats, then Marist, boys play. She loved her family, friends, and football and wasn't afraid to tell you about it! She was also a fierce supporter of my own endeavours, sporting and otherwise, and I will treasure her memory always. Rest in peace, Paulene x
