She trained at Colsehill, qualifying as a nurse at the age of 18 and enjoyed a long and varied career with the medical profession.

She met her husband Joe in 1963 and they married a few years later. Her family were incredibly important to Mary, as she was to them.

    -and did you get what you wanted in this life – I did so – and what was that – to call myself beloved to feel myself beloved on this earth -Raymond Carver
    This sums up Pauline – she loved and lived life to the full and her love was returned to her manifold. A woman of strong faith may God hold her in the palm of his hand. Love always Pauline – Tim and Jose
