Paula was born in Washington, Missouri on November 20, 1962, the daughter of Frederick "Bud" & Carroll (Quick) Backes.
She was the wife of Steve Tanner. They were united in marriage on August 16, 2008, in New Haven, Missouri.
Paula was a member of St. Peter's United Church of Christ, New Haven.
Paula had a heart of gold and truly lived life to the fullest. Family was everything to Paula. She was the absolute best Nan to her grandkids, and an amazing mother to her three boys and two daughter-in-laws. Not to mention a second mom to many.
Paula never knew a stranger, and was there for anyone and everyone. She made anyone who knew her feel like a friend.
