Limited visitation will be held prior to the service. Entombment will take place at Highland Memorial Park at 11:15 AM that day. A Celebration of Life event will be held at a later date.
In lieu of money or flowers, it is Pauline's wish: Remember me by making someone else happy; perform a small act of kindness to somebody. This does not take much - a smile, send a card, visit a friend, go out for lunch … the only way to be happy is to make someone else so.
Thank you to Mrs. Sohr's medical teams, Wichmann Funeral Home and Highland Memorial Park. To Eagle Point Senior Living Facility; so professional, caring and supportive. The family wishes to say thank you all for making Foxy's place a home she could thrive and be truly happy
For me life was a piece of cake,
I tasted it all and enjoyed every bite.
I trusted the lord with all might,
and now I stand in his heavenly light.
"Thank you for enjoying my life with me!" P.S. Foxy
