I’m so gutted to hear the news of Paula’s passing, she was a brilliant mum and grand mum, everytime I saw Paula she had the most amazing smile and radiated kindness where ever she went. Thinking of all the family at this sad time, Paula was clearly loved by everyone who knew her, if love could of saved her she would of lived forever, she now resides in the kingdom of heaven in total peace, Rip Paula x

I first met Paula many years ago when I started at St Anne's, early in my career. She was one of the people who helped shape the person I am today and the manager I have become. We continued to keep that connection and she has remained one of the kindest, most genuine people I have known.

Paula was down to earth, a plain talker, caring and always willing to help. She was a doer and had an incredible belief in people and their potential. She has made a difference to countless lives through her kindness and compassion. Paula was a truly beautiful lady with a huge heart, and I feel privileged to have known her.

Becky, through life's coincidences we have come to know each other through other connections, so I hope you already know how much your mum meant to so many people. You, and your family are in my and my family's thoughts.

I had the complete pleasure of knowing Paula for 20 years. She oozed warmth and kindness and humility. Her careful stewardship of St Annes and S2R made a profound difference to the lives of so many people across Kirklees. Paula was a first class person in every respect and she will be sorely missed. She just made things better.
