head teller at Bank of New York and later, after a relocation to Florida, head teller at First National Bank of Northwest Florida in Panama City. Over time, she developed superlative organizational skills and an uncanny knack for numbers. Until her death at age 89, she could recite anyone’s phone numbers with ease.
Ms. Pais had striking good looks in her youth, with strawberry blonde hair and deep blue eyes. She surprised people when she told them she was Portuguese. She was a career woman, a mother to two daughters, an accomplished cook and, later in life, a caretaker for her mother, her mother-in law and her husband. Her daughter described her as “a 4-foot-eleven-inch dynamo.”
