Pauline Froese, widow of Jacob K. Froese, was born on Feb. 10, 1895 in Marion County, Kansas, to Cornelius H. and Helena Friesen.

Upon her confession of faith, she was baptized by Rev. Abraham Ratzlaff in the Hoffnungsau Mennonite Church, and became a member there.

On Dec. 28, 1930, she married Jacob K. Froese and became a devoted mother to his seven children. God granted them 34 years and six months of happy married life together.
