Burial Roseland Park Cemetery. BY NlRAJ WARIKOO Kree Press Staff Writer As the state started a trend toward discharging mental patients from institutions in the late 1960s, Arthur Middlebrooks was poised to take them in. Mr. Middle-brooks owned three hotels in Detroit and converted them into adult foster care homes in 1967. For about the next three decades, he managed those buildings, helping people on Arthur Middlebrooks the margins of society integrate into the main- stream.

Mr. Middlebrooks died Sunday of a heart attack at Manorcare nursing home in West Bloomfield Township. He was 81. The former Hamtramck resident and longtime Detroiter eventually owned four foster homes. He sold them in the 1980s and 1990s, and retired a few years ago.

Pauline Sterling Former Free Press writer Pauline Sterling, 96, a former Free Press features writer and an accomplished cellist, died Sunday of heart failure at Mercy Memorial Hospital in Monroe. From 1948 to 1967, Mrs. Sterling of Monroe was noted for her profiles on a diverse group of subjects: Imelda Marcos, Charles Schulz and Lady Bird Johnson. She also was a cellist for the Pauline Sterling Women's Symphony, Plymouth Symphony and Scandinavian Symphony. Mrs.

Sterling first worked for the Monroe Evening News, where she was society editor from 1932 to 1944. Born Pauline Denniston in Anso-nia, Ohio, she graduated from Monroe High School and then headed West to tour with a group of musicians in vaudeville shows. She played the cello and marimba. After deciding to settle down, she moved to Monroe and started working for the Evening News. But she later got bored with her job.

"She realized she wanted to more interesting journalism, so she decided to go to Detroit," said her son, Joseph. At the Free Press, she was awarded a 1954 Page One prize for feature writing from the newspaper guild of Detroit. Mrs. Sterling also loved to garden, paint watercolors and sculpt. She made a bust of her first granddaughter.

Other survivors include three grandchildren and one great grandchild. The funeral will be at 10:30 a.m. today at Rupp Funeral Home, 2345 South Custer, Monroe. Burial will follow in Roselawn Memorial Park Cemetery in LaSalle, Mich. Frankie Brown Postal clerk, avid bowler Frankie Brown, 67, a retired U.S.

Postal Service clerk who had a 179 average bowling score, died Saturday of bone cancer at Stjohn Hospital in Detroit. Mrs. Brown, a longtime Detroit resident, worked for the Post Office for 25 years until retiring in 1993. She moved to Southfield to live with her daughter in 1992.

Richard Butwill Detroit police officer Richard L. Butwill, 65, a retired Detroit police officer who loved to play practical jokes on people, died Sunday of respiratory failure at University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor. Mr. Butwill of Plymouth retired as a sergeant from the Police Department in 1987 after 33 years of service. The former Detroit resident worked in the downtown area for most of his career.

Mr. Butwill enjoyed playing practical jokes on colleagues, but one time he was the target. An avid lottery player, Mr. Butwill would usually find out the daily picks from a fellow officer, who had once been a victim of his pranks. One day, she found out his picks.

When he later asked her what the daily numbers were, she rattled off the same numbers he had picked instead of the actual winning numbers. "He thought he had won the lottery!" said his wife, Sharron. "He was turning white, sick to his stomach, reading the numbers over and over. He then looked behind him and saw a bunch of officers smiling. He told his fellow officer, 'If I live a million years, I will never be able to get back at you for what you "He always said that at least he knew what if felt like to win the lottery." Born in Detroit, he graduated from Catholic Central High School and served in the Air Force during the Korean War.

He lived in Detroit until moving to Plymouth in 1988. Other survivors include sons Mark and David; one sister, and three grandchildren. The funeral will be at 10 a.m. today at St Gemma Catholic Church, 23450 W. Davison, Detroit.
