Our sweet Paula was passionate about spending time outdoors, traveling, and creating art. She found joy in sharing her culinary talents. Paula's delight for music could be heard through her angelic voice. Caring for family and friends was her top priority.

The Catholic faith was dear to her heart. She took this calling seriously, living a life of holiness, sharing unending kindness, volunteering her time and talents at St. Timothy's and beyond. Her strength in all things was an inspiration for all those she touched.

Paula graduated from Bishop Watterson High School in 1984, and went on to earn a degree in microbiology at The Ohio State University in 1989. Upon completing her degree, Paula devoted 30 plus years of service as a Transplant Technologist at OSU Hospital.
