        Pauline Rute Hall, affectionately known as “Grammy”, 83, a proud lifetime resident of Newburgh, entered into eternal peace, but not without a fight, on Saturday, October 27, 2018 with her loving partner by her side, at the Kaplan Hospice Residence.

       Pauline was born May 12, 1935, a daughter of the late Paul and Flossie Rute, She graduated from Newburgh Free Academy in 1952 and spent over 20 years working as an office manager at Construction Contractors Associated. Pauline enjoyed bowling with friends and family at Tarsio Lanes, where her attention to detail led her to serve as the league secretary for many years. She had a love for genealogy and was an avid baseball fan, always routing for her Mets. Throughout her lifetime, Pauline made many memories at the Great Sacandaga Lake, spending every weekend she could with her family at their lakefront property.

       As the matriarch of her family, Pauline will be remembered as a strong woman, with thick skin, but a soft heart. She was loyal and dedicated to her friends and family, making it her duty to always protect and care for them. Her friends will miss her sharp memory for anything and everything Newburgh. Her family will miss her roast beef dinner and her thoughtful trinkets that always came with very specific directions. Everyone would agree that she was special and she sure was “somethin’ else.”

       Pauline was predeceased by her husband, Thomas Robert Hall in 1979. She leaves her loving memories to be cherished by her; devoted partner of over 23 years, Al P. Crisci of Newburgh and their dog, Mandy; her daughter Donna Conklin of Newburgh; her son Thomas “Mike” Hall and his wife, Patricia of New Windsor; 6 adorning grandchildren, Michelle Pagano and her husband Jeffrey, Lauren Terry and her husband Steven, Nicholas Calvino and his fiance’ Victoria, Thomas Hall, Caitlin Hall, and Ira Conklin IV; 9 great-grandchildren, Peyton Tuttle, Ryder Tuttle, Luke Pagano, Lucia “Lucy” Pagano, Jake Pagano, Jax Pagano, Jesse Pagano, Alec “Oliver” Calvino, and Savannah Terry. Pauline will be greatly missed by her sisters, Charlotte Scott of Hyde Park and Lorraine Cross of North Fort Myers, Florida.

       Friends and family are invited to call at Brooks Funeral Home on Monday, October 29 from 4-8 pm. A service will be held at 11 am on Tuesday at the funeral home, with burial following in Woodlawn Cemetery, New Windsor.

       In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions be made to Hospice of Orange and Sullivan County, 800 Stony Brook Ct., Newburgh, NY 12550. To send a personal condolence please visit www.Brooksfh.com  or call 845-561-8300.
