Born in Camden on Feb. 5, 1926, she was the daughter of Frederick William Libby and Bernice Estelle Kitching Libby. She was a 1944 graduate of Camden High School.
Pauline lived in Washington state and Florida before returning to Maine where she worked at GTE Sylvania in Waldoboro, Maine Egg Farms, the Samoset Resort, the Knox Woolen Company, and Cedar Crest Restaurant.
