Family Years

Married Albert James Timko on April 22, 1950 at Sts. Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church in Warren, Trumbull County, Ohio. Pauline was a pretty and caring young woman, who was prone to fits of giggles. She was the youngest of ten children and was quick with her smiles and wit. One has to only look at her early photographs to see examples of that ever present smile. It’s no wonder that my Uncle Albert was drawn to her. She was a frequent visitor to the Timko home as she was best friends with Albert’s sister Elizabeth. I was told Albert once comment to her that he was going to marry her and she replied “We’ll see.” Whether or not those were the true words of their exchange, Albert was smitten by her and it wasn’t too long before he proposed to Pauline..

The couple had seven children: four boys - Albert James Jr., Allen Jeffery, Timothy James and Ronald Lawrence, and three girls - Sheryl Ann, Paulette Suzette and Louise Karen.
