Pamela Runnels with her grandchild
Born on March 30, 1953, in Du Quoin, Illinois, to Richard and Josephine Ruby (Elder) Galbraith, Pamela dedicated 13 years of service as a police officer with the Chicago Police Department. Her greatest joy in life was being a devoted mother and a cherished grandmother.
Pamela found happiness in simple pleasures—watching television, caring for her pets, playing scratch-off tickets, and spending precious time with her family.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Richard and Josephine Galbraith.
Pamela is survived by her daughter, Pamela (Butch) Tasior of Arkdale, WI; her son, Rick Jr. (Jennifer) Runnels of Tamaroa, IL; grandchildren, Albert Jr. (Lauren) Tasior of Baraboo, WI, Charligh Runnels of Tamaroa, IL, and Logan Runnels of Tamaroa, IL; sister, Vickie Aguirre-Martino of Chicago, IL; niece, April Elvidge; nephew, Joe Aguirre; along with great-nieces, great-nephews, and dear friends.
In honor of Pamela’s love for animals, memorial contributions may be made to the Adams County Humane Society.
Per her wishes, no services are planned.
