Pauline Helen Copas, 86, passed away unexpectedly on July 29, 2016.

Pauline was born on April 17, 1930, in Blackwater, MO, to Frank and Bessie (Langlotz) Meyer. She graduated from Boonville High School in the class of 1947. She married Paul V. Copas in 1950, and to his union were born two daughters. She was a telephone operator with Southwestern Bell/AT&T for 36 years. After Paul’s death in 1987, she began dating Bob Marsh, a former high school classmate. She and Bob spent many years enjoying each other’s company and spending time at their house on the Lake of the Ozarks. Her flower gardens were a beauty to behold. She was a vibrant, loving member of the family, and she will be dearly missed.
Pauline is survived by her partner of 29 years, Bob Marsh; daughters, Paula Copas-Nelson and Jennifer Copas-Zeuschel; grandchildren, Laura Fischer-Coughlin, Elizabeth Zeuschel-LaRusso, and John Robert Zeuschel III; great-grandchildren, Mariah Zeuschel, Elise Coughlin, and Vincent Coughlin; and sister, Josephine Caulk.
Along with her husband, she is also preceded in death by two brothers and two sisters.
