The love she held for her family was boundless, a flame that burned brightly in her heart. She had a special bond with her nephew Bubba, whom she cherished and embraced as if he were her very own son, pouring all her affection into loving and caring for him.
Paula was a lover of life, finding joy in the simplest of pleasures. She loved dancing, allowing her spirit to soar as she moved to the rhythm of the music. The beach was a special place for her, and she found solace in the sun’s embrace, and the sand slipping through her toes—a reminder of her carefree spirit. Her love for motorcycles, especially her admiration for Harley Davidsons, reflected her adventurous nature, a testament to her zest for exploring life’s twists and turns. Passionate about sports, she was an unwavering supporter of the Houston Texans, her enthusiasm capturing the hearts of those she watched games with.
