rnPaulette brought sunshine wherever she went. Strangers became friends and conversations flowed easily. She and husband, David met while in college and they moved 13 times since they married 34 years ago. Paulette left a legion of friends along the way and continually added to her Christmas card list. As she collected friends so did she collect discarded animals. She took them in and made them part of her family. She took her sunny smile and blue eyes to the cancer treatment center . There she took that bad situation and became a cheerleader for other patients making a bad situation palatable. She fought that lung cancer battle for 51/2 years always with optimism.rnrnWhen she went shopping for herself she always came back with things for the children instead .rnrnIn addition to her husband, David, Paulette is survived by their children: Dino, Maria, and Gina, her mother, Carmela Rovinski, sister, Mary Catherine Costigan, brothers: Anthony and Thomas Rovinski , and many close cousins.rnrnCome celebrate 56 smiling years Tuesday from 5 To 8 PM at Corcoran Funeral Home, Plains, Pa.
