Paulette Nelson, 88, of Fayetteville passed away on Tuesday, June 11. 2024, at her residence with her family by her side.

Paulette was born on July 30, 1935, in Fontenay-Le-Comte, France to the late Louis Marice Porcher and Valentine Betard Porcher.

Through the years she worked as a cashier for the military commissary in France and as a housekeeper for the government housing in Germany and the United States.
