DeSorgher: In Honor of Pauline Goucher, 'The First Lady of Medfield'

The following eulogy was given by Richard DeSorgher at Pauline Goucher's funeral at St. Edward Church on Jan. 9.

I can think of no better example of what makes Medfield, Medfield than Pauline McKinnon Goucher. I first met Pauline when I was a kid growing up in Medfield, through her daughter, Sarah and Pauline was Mrs. Goucher to me. Sarah and I were in the same class in school and I got to know Sarah as one who loved life completely.  In high school, she and I were dance partners at the old Youth Center, today’s Pfaff Center, which used to have dances every Saturday night with live …

What a beautiful tribute, Richard. I always feel sad when I read a eulogy because I wish that I had known their life story while they were still with us......and not only after they have passed on. Thank you for sharing your perspective and Pauline's life story with all of us.   more ›
