She liked to have fun by collecting antiques, spending time in her garden, going to the beach and cooking. Paula enjoyed spending time with her family and would light up around babies, they always brought a smile to her face.
Paula’s family remembers her as a good wife and mother, who was special for just being who she was every day. Her favorite time of year was the holidays, especially Christmas time when she would spend days creating large and loving meals for her family.
Paula is preceded in death by her mother, Betty Childers of Portland. She is survived by her loving husband, Leonard of Salem Oregon; sons, Ronald Hatch Jr. II of Salem, Doug Hatch of Salem, Ty Ege of Portland and step daughter Leslie Peck of Washington; she was also blessed with grandchildren, Skyler, Ethan and Tyler; and great grandchild, Jayden.
