On April 10th, 2025 Paula Jeanette Dailey (nee Brown) of Villa Ridge, Missouri passed away unexpectedly at the age of 73 years.

Paula is survived by her husband f 53 years, Bill; their three children: John, Laura (special friend Jonathan O'Malley) and Nicole; grandchildren: Skyler, Kayla and Kaiden; sisters: Susan (Gary) Dale, Kay (John) Neives and Debbie (Bob) Martin; as well as numerous relatives and friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents: William (Brownie) and Ida Brown; brother: Tom Brown and nephew Aaron Martin.

Paula was born on October 28th, 1951 in Bellefontaine, Ohio.  She graduated from Pacific High School in Pacific, Missouri in 1970.  She then went on to receive her license in Cosmetology.

Paula married Bill Dailey of Pacific in 1972 after only living 2 blocks from one another growing up and attending high school together.  Over the next few years they welcomed their three children.

Paula worked as a Beautician for many many years at the His and Hers Beauty Salon in Pacific, Missouri.  She loved her profession, loved the girls she worked with and her many clients she had over the years.

Once she retired in 2022, she enjoyed spending time with her family, traveling, doing diamond paintings and designing her very much deserved country home.

She was a wonderful wife, the best mother anyone could ask for and a great friend to all.  She was beautiful inside and out.  She was humble, never met a stranger, always had a smile on her face and was always there for you anytime you needed her.

Paula chose to donate her body to science.

A Memorial Mass for Paula Dailey is scheduled for 10 o'clock a.m. on May 10th, 2025 at St. Bridget's Catholic Church in Pacific, Missouri.
