Margaret Ann Paulson, long time resident of Kaukauna, returned to her heavenly father on March 14, 2022 at the age of 89. She passed peacefully with her family at her side and music in the air.  Margaret was born in Oconto, WI on April 5, 1932 to Wesley and Ruth (Follett) Hall.  She married Dr. Jerome Paulson on August 25, 1956 and together they raised 6 children: Tim (Tina), Lindy (Brent), Jill (Rick), Tom (Mary), Dave (Diana) and Kristin (Sam).

Margaret had a love of music and sang alto in the Holy Cross choir for many years.  She loved her job as a secretary for the Kaukauna School District, initially at KHS and then Park Elementary where she touched the lives of many teachers and children.  Margaret loved to gather family and friends together, often the mastermind of games and wonderful traditions.  She delighted in fresh flowers on the table, a piece of lemon pie and a cat on her lap.

Margaret was the proud "Gramma" to: Elly (Vern), Erin (Tony), Missy (Nick), Jake (Becky), Becca, Matthew, Paul, Chelsea (Jordan), Wesley, Cade, Sarah, Nick, Erik, Owen, Gwen, Jack, and Jeb; Great-gramma to: Nash, TJ, Landon, Laine, Brody, Porter, Audrey, and Evelyn.

Margaret was preceded in death by her husband, Jerome Paulson; son, Tom Paulson; and brother, Gene Hall.
