Pauline L. Ladue

Pauline L. Ladue, 92, died peacefully on Sunday, July 2, 2023 at Holy Cross Health Care Center in Manchester.

Pauline was born in Hudson, New Hampshire on August 31, 1930 and was the daughter of the late Joseph and Cora (Pepin) St. Pierre. She was a graduate of Presentation of Mary High School in Hudson with the class of 1949.

Pauline lived a full life and was full of life. She loved unconditionally, never asked for anything and gave of herself in more ways that can be counted. She was the family’s energizer bunny. For a little woman she carried a large presence. Pauline never met a stranger as she was always comfortable striking up a conversation with anyone nearby.

For 40 years, she was employed in the payroll department at Bronze Craft Corp. until her retirement. During her retirement she was an avid hiker, hiking many different trails all over the US and especially in New Hampshire. Her favorite place to hike was Colorado. She also enjoyed photography ventures with her long time friend, Walt Hansen. In her free time, she loved to read and for over 20 years, volunteered many hours at Southern New Hampshire Medical Center. Pauline also liked to travel to various destinations over her years, Arizona being her favorite.

A firm believer that every meal should end with dessert, her love for ice cream was contagious. Her favorite flavor was coffee. Above all, her most cherished time was visiting with her family, who she loved dearly.

Pauline is survived by her sisters Estelle St. Pierre of Montreal Canada and Joan Tyler of Hudson; her sister-in-law, Gloria St. Pierre of Nashua; as well as her nieces and nephews, Charlene and Dave Myler, Donna Perreault and her late husband Wayne, Rosemarie and Mark Hobson, Vicky Ann and Jeff Kalil, Diane and Dave Dinsmore, Denise and Rich Landry, Donald Provencher, Marc Provencher and Kathie Kaluzynski, Carl and Christine Provencher, Brian and Michelle Tyler, Kassy (Katherine) Tyler and Rodney Brammer Jr., Tim Tyler, Colleen Tyler and Phil Garneau, and Steve St. Pierre along with many great nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her sister, Rita Provencher and brothers Normand St. Pierre and Reynald St. Pierre.
