Our sweet little mother, Pauline Elise Privat Tanner, having fought the good fight against dementia, finished the race, and kept the faith, peacefully passed away on June 20, 2015. Pauline was born May 29, 1924, in Rayne, Louisiana, the daughter of Louis and Marie Privat.
She was preceded in death by her husband, LeRoy M. Tanner, her son Morris Tanner, her parents, her brothers Roland and Fernand, her sisters Marie Louise and Philomene.
She was a patient, generous mother and a crack shot with a .22 rifle. Her heart and spirit were immense, and her faith in God was unshakeable. She was a devout Roman Catholic and member of Holy Ghost Catholic Church in Bellaire and St. John Vianney Catholic Church in west Houston for many years. The joys in her life included babies, her gardens, watching birds, and taking trips with her girls.
A visitation will begin at 6:00 p.m. followed by rosary at 7:00 p.m. at Forest Park Westheimer Funeral Home, Friday, June 26; A Funeral Mass will be held at 9:30 a.m. at St. John Vianney Catholic Church in Houston, Saturday, June 27; Internment will follow at 1:00 p.m. at Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery.
