Pamela Roberts Obituary
She was born on Sept. 9, 1949 to Charles (Bun) Roberts and Ann Marie (Rohnkohl) Roberts. To know Pam was to know true sunshine. She brought light and life into each and every room she entered. She was never found without a song on her lips and a spring in her step. You couldn't help but smile after encountering the whirlwind that was our dear Goola-Goo dancing through her rounds in her yellow crocs.
Receiving her LPN degree in 1994 from Kirtland Community College, that began an almost 25-year career caring for numerous patients at Tawas Saint Joseph Hospital, Tawas Bay Family Practice and Sterling Health Center. Her love for people was matched only by her love for animals, particularly elephants.
Truly one of God's own Angels here on earth, she never let anyone go without a hug or a squeeze. She will be missed by her close "family" on Shady Lane, her colleagues, and her patients whom she lived for.
She was proceeded in death by her parents. She is survived by her brother, Paul Roberts of Tawas City; plus numerous friends who were as close as family.
Per her wishes, cremation has already taken place. A celebration of life will be held in the summer with details to follow. In lieu of flowers please dedicate your memorials to your local animal shelters.

Pam was one of those people you had to love! Her and her voice and crocs brightened the room when she walked in! Please invite me to her celebration.

Pam worked with us in the clinic. She loved everyone and made each person feel special. She especially loved sharing shredded cheese off her taco bell taco with Alle the pug at lunch time. One shred at a time. Alle adored her!
