She was the daughter of the late Freeman and Clara (Cleveland) Dixon. After her retirement from Consumer and Corporate Affairs Pauline enjoyed many years of camping around New Brunswick, hiking at Fundy Park, bowling and several bus trips. She loved to pick berries of any sort and she could not resist a game of cards, especially her favorite - 200s. Her positive spirit could not be extinguished even when stroke took most of her speech and mobility IT DID NOT take her ability to cherish her family and her life.
