Pauline Gremaux Niehuus, 80, passed away on Monday, May 4, 2009, at Kalispell Regional Medical Center in Kalispell. She was born on Aug. 25, 1928, in Lewistown, to homesteaders Emile and Edith (Barney) Gremaux, one of seven children.
She attended high school in Lewistown. During World War II, her mother served in the U.S. Women's Air Corps Border Watch, and her father's farm supported a large war effort agricultural operation.
Pauline met Marshall Niehuus while she was working in Great Falls as an accounting clerk. They were married in 1948 after a short courtship and spent the next several years in various businesses in the small towns of Montana.
Pauline and Marshall had two children who attended schools in Kalispell and Cut Bank, where Pauline and Marshall owned a restaurant, soda fountain, and a mercantile.
When Marshall retired they spent several years traveling in their RV around the U.S. After satisfying their vagabond desires, they settled into the life of snowbirds, spending summers in the mountains of Montana and winters in the deserts of Arizona. Sadly, Polly's husband Marshall died in 1992, and she lived the balance of her life with many very good friends and companions, constantly discussing the happiness her grandchildren brought her.
Polly was preceded in death by her husband, Marshall Niehuus; and son, Danny Niehuus.
She is survived by her son, Ray, and his wife, Linda Niehuus, of New Ulm, Texas; three grandchildren; and a sister, Margaret Svejkorsky, of Bozeman.
A brief, unstructured service for immediate friends and family will be held at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, May 9, at the Crown Cemetery in Cut Bank, where her husband and son are buried; a small gathering will also be held at 6 p.m. Saturday at Polly's home in Kalispell.
