Pauline Lucille Audette
N. GROSVENORDALE — Pauline Audette, 80, of N. Grosvenordale, died in her sleep Jan. 26, 2025, at home. Born in Putnam, she was the daughter of the late Archie Billings and Exilda (Robitaille) Mathieu.
Pauline had a strong, independent spirit that kept her active and working until she retired in 2022. She spent many years working for Sanitary Dash in Thompson and for Centreville Bank in Putnam, even carrying out her duties through the pandemic when most businesses had shut down or gone remote.
Keeping the body and mind active was very important to Pauline. When she wasn’t busy with her duties at work, she enjoyed the comfort of a good book and was known as an avid reader. Her favorite pastime was talking on the phone to friends and family.
She leaves two sons, James Audette of N. Grosvenordale and Jeffrey Audette (Laurie) Audette and grandson Joseph of Sterling; granddaughter Kaitlin Dulin (Evan) of North Carolina; two great-grandsons Gentry and Nolan; nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her sister, Shirley Craig. She will be dearly missed by her lifelong friend Juanita Cristina of Putnam.
Visitation is from 4 to 7 p.m. Feb. 7 in the Gilman Funeral Home, 104 Church St., Putnam. Burial will be private.
