With deep love and profound sadness, the family of Pauline Joy Charnstrom announces her peaceful passing at home, surrounded by her devoted family, on Thursday, July 3, 2025. Pauline was 78 years old.
A woman of warmth, strength, and immeasurable love, Pauline was the beloved wife of the late Robert Charnstrom, with whom she shared a life full of laughter, resilience, and devotion. Together, they built a family rooted in love and togetherness—values Pauline upheld until her final days.
She was the loving mother and mother-in-law of Karen, Shane & Kathryn, and Stephen & Jodie, and a proud Nan to her cherished grandchildren: Emma & Chloe, Luke, Jake & Kassie, Kiralea & Scotty, Lauren & Dillon, Caitlin & Josh, Sophie & Sam. Pauline’s love only grew deeper as she embraced the special role of Great-Nan, a title she held with pure joy and affection.
Pauline touched many lives with her gentle spirit, kind heart, and unwavering dedication to her family. She loved fiercely, supported quietly, and offered wisdom that will echo through generations. Whether she was sharing a cup of tea, offering a warm embrace, or watching her grandchildren grow, Pauline created moments that will now live on as precious memories.
