Paula Bulauan Justo

Paula Bulauan Justo, a loving and faith-filled woman known for her friendly demeanor, passed away Tuesday, August 1, 2023, in Macon, Georgia.

Born on December 7, 1947, in Isabela, Philippines, Paula was a beacon of light in the lives of many. Paula was the cherished wife and personal GPS assistant of 52 years of Ricardo Asuncion Justo of Macon, and the proud mother of six children: Michael Justo of the Philippines, Myranett David (David) of Macon, Marijane Shelton (Dale) of Forsyth, Georgia; Maxell Justo (Marilou) of the Philippines, Marlon Justo (Emily) of Locust Grove, Georgia, and Marielle Justo (J.B.) of the Philippines and 19 grandchildren. She was the beloved sister of Juanito Bulauan, Luciana Gimao, Martha Oamil, Bella Guzman, and was preceded in death by her parents, Luciano Talamayan and Emilia Tamang Baquiran Bulauan, and brothers, Ricardo Bulauan, Marcos Bulauan, and Luciano Bulauan. In September of 2000, Paula moved with her husband to Oriental, North Carolina, beginning a journey that would take them to various parts of the United States. They relocated in 2008 to Aiken, South Carolina, and then in 2011 to Fayetteville, North Carolina. Their final move brought them to Macon in 2015, where Paula spent her remaining years surrounded by love and family. Paula was a woman of many interests and passions. She was a regular at Smiley's Flea Market, where she was known for her friendly demeanor and keen eye for unique finds. A life-long member of the Catholic Church, Paula's faith was a cornerstone of her life, providing her with strength and guidance. She also enjoyed playing the lottery, not for personal gain, but with the hope of helping her family financially. Her selfless nature and loving heart were evident in everything she did. Paula will be remembered as a loving, faith-filled, and friendly woman who brought joy to those around her by singing karaoke. Her legacy of love and faith will continue to live on in the hearts of her family and friends. May her soul rest in peace and her memory be a blessing to all who knew her.
