Paulyne E. Hartlaub

Paulyne E. Hartlaub, 100, of McSherrystown, PA, entered God’s eternal care, Wednesday, June 4, 2025, at the Hanover Hall Nursing Center.

Born July 18, 1924, in Manchester, MD, she was the daughter of the late Jessie and Mary (Noble) Tracy.  Paulyne was the loving wife of the late Burnell W. Hartlaub, with whom she shared 69 years of marriage until his passing on December 6, 2016. 

Paulyne was a 1941 graduate of Manchester High School. She and her husband were the owners and operators of the Clearview Carwash which they started in 1965 until they sold the business in 2003.

Paulyne was a member of Lazarus Lutheran Church, Lineboro, MD.  She belonged to the Hanover Country Club, and the Hanover Elks Lodge Ladies’ Auxiliary.

Mrs. Hartlaub enjoyed reading and singing, and was an avid fan of the Baltimore Orioles, watching as many games as she could.  Paulyne and Burnell met the Osmonds overseas and continued their friendship over the years, seeing the Osmonds many times in concert. In fact, Donny Osmond called Paulyne on her 100th birthday.  She enjoyed flying and some of her flights included trips on the Goodyear Blimp and glider planes.

Paulyne is survived by a brother-in-law, Harold Hartlaub, a sister-in-law, Shirley Humbert, nieces and nephews and her dear caregiver, Cathy Allewelt.  She was preceded in death by a daughter, Debra A. Hartlaub, and a sister, Kathryn Walendorff.

As per Paulyne’s wishes, funeral services will be private and at the convenience of the family.  The burial will be in Lazarus Church Cemetery, Lineboro, MD.
