Pauline Cole's Obituary
Pauline A. Cole, of Bridgeton, NJ passed early Saturday afternoon on March 7, 2026 at the age of 86. She was born August 27, 1939 in Springtown, Greenwich Township, NJ to the late Harriet (Gould) and Elmer H. Saunders. She would go on to be a lifetime resident of the South Jersey area.
Known for her meticulous eye and steady hand, Pauline spent her career as a skilled seamstress and quality control specialist for various local factories before settling in at Rennoc Corporation, based out of Millville and later Vineland, NJ. Outside of her career, she enjoyed exercising her brain with puzzles, reading books, and watching her favorite old-time TV Game Show networks and programs. She also loved spending time outside in nature whether it be attending to her garden or leisurely strolls around the neighborhood. While she found peace in the quiet hum of her garden and the challenge of a complex puzzle, Pauline’s younger years were filled with the energy of bowling leagues and the freedom of riding motorcycles. However, her favorite pastime was being alongside family and friends, especially her loving children, grandchildren, and great grandson.
Pauline’s memory is left to be cherished by children Patricia Mosley, Romaine Mosley Jr, Timothy Mosley, Cathy Mason (Timothy), Donna Jackson (Baron), and Albert Cole Jr (Davita), grandchildren Michael Mosley (Tiffany), Timothy Mason Jr, Tiana Mason, Allen Cole, Zion Jackson, Aja Cole, Zaiden Jackson, and a great grandchild Cameron Mosley, sister Joyce Chambers, and a host of additional nieces, nephews, and additional extended family and friends.
Pauline was predeceased by her parents Harriet and Elmer Saunders, daughter Mary Jane Mosley, grandson Timothy Mosley Jr, and siblings Elmer C Saunders, Mary Hughes, Deleatha Ellen Mosley, Stanley Saunders, Ida Huggins, Herman Saunders, Margaret Pierce, and Edward Saunders.
At the discretion of the family, honoring Pauline’s wishes, services for Pauline Cole will be held privately at a later date.
