I have just learned that Pam passed away. I am so sad and surprised. I was planning to visit with her in 10 days. When she did not return my phone calls, I went to Facebook. So sad. Only the good die young.

The Harwood halls were filled with Ms. Dever's spirit whenever she was there. Even those who were not in her classroom benefitted from her smiles. Prayers for her family and friends.

Hello: I knew Pam from S Burlington High School. She was a friendly person, always, especially to this sister to one of Pam's cohorts, Ginny Moore. I remember the big giant black poodle too.
May her family only rejoice in the wonderful memories of Pam. Pam is in His hands now; may she only know peace forever more.

To the family of Pam Dever
Pam was my teacher, coach and friend for life. I'm so sorry to here of her passing. She will live on in me for as long as I can tell stories. She was a wonderful caring person, teacher and coach. She taught all of the people that new her life long lessons. Everyone that was fortunate to be touched by her are better people today.
I'm very proud to be as she called those of us boys that she coached in Cheerleading “One of her boys”.

Pam, you will be missed! The 80s at Harwood wouldn't have been the same without your teaching skills and patience. Thanks to your typing class, I've had many successful jobs. Steno, not so much, but a fun time! May you and your family be at peace

To the family and friends of Ms. Dever:
I had Ms. Dever as my teacher for four (1978-1982) years and took all the secretarial/business classes she taught. She was my favorite teacher and my inspiration. She expected nothing but the best we could do which made us better students, better employees, and people in the long run. She was always there with a smile, an encouraging word, or if one needed help. I remember my senior year she had one of her secretarial classes over to her house for a cook out - what fun we had! I still have the graduation gift she gave me-that is how much I love Ms. Dever. She will remain in the hearts of many of us.

Family of Ms. Dever,
Ms. Dever was one of the kindest people I knew. She took me under her wing in my senior year to help build my confidence. I also credit her to my almost 26 year career with the state of Vermont. Ms. Dever was one of the teachers who connected me with the Human Resource Manager from the state during our then-annual job fair. Througout my senior year I learned to balance school and working part-time all the while having Ms. Dever in my corner as my biggest chearleader. A quality, now that I have my own child, that is something truly special.
Rest in Peace Ms. Dever.

I'm so sorry to hear of Pam's passing. She was one of my favorite teachers at Harwood. I think I had more classes with her than any other teacher, and I enjoyed all of them. She taught me a lot of skills that I still use today. She was a great coach, too. Sincere condolences to the family.

Family & Friends of Ms. Dever,
I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Ms. Dever. I was fortunate to have her in High School. I would have never imagined, at that age, how much she would shape the person I am today, but most importantly the lessons she taught me in preparing for "life" as I know it. I hope she knew that her teaching will follow through to eternity, her influence stall never stop. Some of my fondest vivid memories was her uncompromising "you can do it" attitude. I will always remember how she inspired and influenced me and how her sometimes difficult lessons shaped me. Keep her memory close in your hearts, always.

Pam was one of my favorite teachers. I had so much repect for her that it's actually weird to refer to her as Pam. I still felt like saying Miss Dever whenever I ran into her. She was most definitely one of the good ones. Every child in school should get a "Miss Dever".

So sorry for your loss. Ms. Dever was my Business Ed teacher at Harwood. So many of the skills I still use today came from her! Some of the tools we use have changed, but the things she taught us still ring true. She always had a smile on her face and was willing to help. A great teacher!

Thoughts go out to her family, she was my teacher at Harwood and I have kept in touch via facebook over the last year or so. She had a great influence on me in my choice for a career because of her teaching.

To the family of Pam Dever,
I am so sorry to hear of Pam's passing. She was my teacher at Harwood Union HS from the late 60's to early 70's. She taught me so much about working in an office, shorthand, typing, etc., that I have been in an office position for over 30 years. She would always ask me if I was still doing shorthand. She was one of my all-time favorite teachers. I will miss her smile. Please know you are in my thoughts.
