North Bend, NE Friday, August 23, 2013 Pam, we had some great private talks. I was so happy to see your face the day you married the love of your life Chuck. You were getting ready in the bathroom at work and I helped you put on makeup and fluff your hair cause you know me I always had hairspray. I pinned that flower on you and told you that I had gotten it for you to wear because no one gets married without a flower. I always looked at your house on my way past to work to see if you got VTO or if you were working. I even thought that morning that you had gotten VTO and thought good for you. I send prays and blessings to your husband and kids and grandkids to somehow live their lives without you in site, but know that they have you in their hearts and souls forever. Rest in Peace Pam.Ann Marie Duguay
