Read More	Eva Pauline Fosheim was born on September 21, 1930 in Midland, South Dakota, the daughter of Peter and Viola (Hand) Fosheim. She grew up in the Deep Creek area and was baptized and confirmed in the Deep Creek Church. This church would always hold fond memories for her and a special place in her heart. She completed Grades 1-8 at Little Eagle School and attended Midland High School. On September 12, 1947, Pauline was united in marriage to Harry H. "Hank" Schofield at the Lutheran parsonage in Midland, SD and to this union nine children were born. They lived and worked in the Midland area until 1959 when they moved onto the Schofield family homestead southwest of Midland on Brave Bull Creek. This is where they spent the remainder of their 56 years of married life with Pauline faithfully working beside her husband keeping books for the ranch and tending to their home and family. After losing her beloved husband to his brave fight with cancer in November of 2003, Pauline moved from her home and lived with her daughter and family for four years until she entered the Kadoka Nursing Home. She later moved to the Philip Nursing Home in order to be closer to her family and this is where she resided until the time of her death. Pauline's life revolved around her home, family, and God. She had an unfaltering faith which she passed down to her children and this is what carried her through the many trials and hardships she endured during her lifetime. She will be remembered as a loving wife, mother and grandmother. She had that special talent of "turning a house into a home" with all the little things she did, whether it be having fresh baked cookies waiting for the kids when they got home from school, staying up all night to sew doll clothes for her daughters at Christmas, or making play dough for her grandchildren. Her love of children was evident and the door to Hank and Pauline's home was always open to anyone who needed a place to stay. Throughout the years they welcomed many children into their home loving and treating them as their own. God blessed Pauline with many talents. She loved music, had a beautiful singing voice and taught herself to play several instruments including the piano, which was her favorite. She was also a gifted seamstress, artist, writer, quilter, cook and baker, to name a few. She was an avid reader and encouraged the children in her life to do the same. Throughout her life she was an active member of the Deep Creek and Trinity Lutheran churches teaching Sunday School, Release Time and Bible School. She was a member of the Rebecca Circle, served as PTA President, 4-H leader and was involved in a number of other various clubs and organizations. Pauline is survived by four sons, Monte Schofield and Lucas (Brigit) Schofield of Midland, SD, Kirby (Nancy) Schofield of Belvidere, SD, and Wesley (Marina) Schofield of Truman, MN; three daughters, Jill (Wayne) Splitt of Wichita, KS, June (Leroy) Fedderson and Julie (Larry) McLaughlin both of Midland, SD; thirty-one grandchildren; thirty-four great-grandchildren; three brothers, Peter (Sylvia) Fosheim of Pierre, SD, Joe Fosheim, Ft.
