Pauline Joan Neeley

68 years of age

04/06/1956 – 11/24/2024

It is with deep sorrow and in the hope of eternal life through Christ Jesus, that the family of Mrs. Pauline Joan Neeley (Jackson), announce her passing on November 24, 2024 at the age of 68. After 8 long months of battling cancer, she was called home to be with her Lord surrounded by loved ones.

Pauline was born on April 6, 1956 in St. Charles, Missouri to Don and Rose Jackson. She was a faithful servant of Jesus Christ, and her life was marked by a strong commitment to her faith, family and community. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, godmother and a cherished friend to many. Her love for God and others shone brightly in all she did.

Pauline was a warm and loving soul who found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She had a deep love for gardening, spending countless hours nurturing and caring for her plants. Pauline also had a passion for baking, often filling her home with the comforting aromas of freshly baked desserts, which she loved to share with family, friends and colleagues. Pauline was a loyal employee at Hertz for 41 years, where her contagious smile and her ability to connect helped her to cultivate life long relationships. Above all, she cherished her family, always prioritizing their needs and offering her unwavering love and support. Her home was a place of warmth, kindness, and hospitality where those she loved knew they were always welcome.

The family takes comfort in knowing that Pauline is now in the presence of the Lord and resting in His peace. She held fast to the promise that despite her earthly suffering, her final victory was already assured, through faith in her Lord, as written in 2 Timothy 4:7-8 “she fought the good fight, she finished the race, she kept the faith. Now there is in store for her the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to her on that day.”

Pauline Neeley is survived by her husband of 25 years, Mark Neeley. Granddaughters Shawnna Primeau and Kennedy Primeau, son Shawn Primeau, twin sister Paulette Michel, sisters Donna Schrader and Nancy Demski, brothers-in-law Glenn Schrader and Bill Demski, step-daughter Ruby May, and step-grandchildren Shawn, Ryan, Tyler, and Skyler. She was preceded in death by her loving parents Don and Rose.

A visitation will be held at Baue Funeral Home, located at 620 Jefferson, St. Charles, MO 63301, on Wednesday December 4th from 4-7pm. The funeral service will be held the following day, Thursday December 5th at 10am, also at Baue Funeral Home, with the burial to follow at Oak Grove Cemetery 2700 W Clay, St. Charles. Family and friends are invited to join in honoring her memory and praising God for the gift of Pauline’s life.

The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the entire team at the Siteman Cancer Center and for the staff at BJC Hospice.

She shall be forever in our hearts and eternally with the Lord.

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” – Matthew 5:4.
