     This memorial website was created to remember Pauline R. Wertz who was born in York County, Pennsylvania on April 11, 1919 and passed away on June 18, 2008. She will live forever in our memories and hearts.

     Pauline R. Wertz, 89, of Chillicothe, IL, formerly of Lemoyne, PA, passed away at 10:45 a.m. on Wednesday, June 18, 2008, at Heritage Manor in Chillicothe.

     Pauline was born on April 11, 1919 in York County, PA, daughter of Clarence E. and Grace R. (Miller) Spong. She married Marlet W. Wertz on November 9, 1943 in Wormleysburg, PA.
