    Sorry for your loss. I’m Eulene (Wells) Hutchison’s daughhter, (Doris and my husband Tom). Haven’t seen Pauline since mom died in 2010 but she was always such a sweetheart and always had a smile on her face and was always laughing about something. I would always try and see her when I would go see mom. Loved her and Morris both. Our prayers go out for the family and friends. Love you all.
