Pam started working at the Utah State Capital in 1990. She worked there until 2019 when she retired. We have photos when Grayson took little Landon up to visit Maga at Halloween. Maga said she might work late and then stop in to see the boys as they attended Prom there. Cooper did a "job shadow" day with Maga in 2017.
When Pam retired in February of 2019, she posted this video and statement to her Facebook. There were so many pictures I hadn't seen before. I wanted to make sure the video was preserved and easily located. So it's uploaded to our YouTube channel, and showcased here on the blog.
RETIREMENT TIME: Twenty-eight and one-half years ago, I sought a job within state government when my husband was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer (an insulinoma) for which the doctors could not tell us prognosis. I sought work in the Attorney General's Office on beautiful Capitol Hill, and worked under Jan Graham's administration for her Criminal Deputy, Reed Richards. I worked within the Attorney General's Office for fourteen years, and then took a variety of other jobs within state government -- working in the Governor's Office for Governors Jon Huntsman and Gary Herbert, and later working for Kathleen Clarke in the Public Lands Policy Coordinating Office. What began as personal heartbreak for our family in 1990, has turned out to be an unsurpassed educational experience, with a variety of growth opportunities, a front row seat witnessing some important issues unfolding, and WONDERFUL enduring friendships with countless top notch professionals. It now makes sense to step back and spend more time with my family. I am profoundly greatful to everyone who has enriched my life throughout the past many years, and bid this chapter of my life a very fond farewell.
