Pauline Eafrati, 89, of Manchester NH and formerly of Beverly Hills, FL passed away on May 31, 2022. She was born in Manchester on November 10, 1932, to Oscar and Claudia Pilotte and graduated from St George High School in 1950. She was married to Andrew LeBlond for 32 years until his passing in 1984.

She worked at Manchester Federal Savings for 15 years and was a communicant of St George Parish on Pine St.

In 1989 she married Louis Eafrati and they moved to Beverly Hills, FL in 1995 where they enjoyed over 20 years of retirement before moving back to Manchester in 2016. While in Florida she belonged to the Shuffleboard Club, the New England Club, The Red Hats and Beverly Hills Association. They enjoyed bus trips to Branson, Missouri and other destinations with her and Louis’ many friends. She was an avid bowler at both Lakeside Lanes and King Lanes while in Manchester and enjoyed playing cards “for pennies” with her sisters Irma, Blanche, Rita, Yvette and Lucille, crossword puzzles, crocheting blankets for her grandkids and reading.
