Pauline Faye (Stuart) Hoff, age 90, of New Richmond, WI formerly of Boyceville, WI passed away peacefully at her home on September 10, 2020, surrounded by her family, after a long battle with cancer. Pauline was born February 5, 1930 in Dunn County, WI to Gladys (Whistler) and Charles Stuart. Pauline married Arles Hoff, they were married 47 years, and were blessed with 8 children. Pauline’s greatest accomplishment was her family. She loved and cared deeply for them. All her children were proud to call her mother. She always enjoyed preparing food for large gatherings, much of it grown and canned from her own garden. Pauline’s children and grandchildren loved spending time together canning sweet corn, picking berries and cucumbers, making homemade ice cream and then washing all those dishes. Once the work was done, she was spoiled with a line of children waiting to do her hair. As a family they loved going to ball games or church and cherished all their time together. She was a sports enthusiast and rarely missed watching her children play softball. She cheered for her favorite teams, the Brewers and Packers. Pauline is survived by her children Shelvey, Butch (Ginger), Cheryl (Roger) Brathal, Judy (Bruce) Borgen, Linda (Jean), Jeff (Bonnie), Debra O’Flanagan; son in law Thomas Simons. Her brother, Michael (Johnna) Stuart, 17 Grandchildren and 22 Great-Grandchildren.

Judy. I know I speak for many at Form A Feed when I say we are truly feeling dad about your loss. It is never easy so please be assured that we do care about you
Cheryl, I’m so sorry for your loss. She sounds really remarkable, and typical of a Depression era child, so capable of taking on a yeoman share of duties with such a large family and growing and producing the food, and I suspect clothing as well. I know when I lost my mom it was so hard to adjust: it’s the last person who pretty much knows everything about you and I felt s bit like an orphan. My sympathies!! Cheryl Larson
