RUMFORD – Pauline M. Carver, 87, went to be with her Lord, Sunday, Sept. 29, 2019, surrounded by her family at the home of her daughter, Cathleen.

Born in Maplewood, Nova Scotia, Canada, on Jan. 29, 1932, in the home that her grandfather built and still remains in the family, the daughter of Ormand and Vivian (Sarty) Kaulback.

Pauline was a kind, caring and giving lady. She loved being a stay at home mom. She held many “Good News” clubs and reached out to many children in her neighborhoods. In her later years she worked at housekeeping, both in private homes and the Samoset Resort. She also loved working at an antique store in Rockland. She loved doing many crafts as well as quilting. Her greatest pleasure was spending time at the “homeplace” in Nova Scotia as well as being with her family. As her great-grandson put it, “she loved to tell old family stories” to anyone who would listen.
