Pamela Loreice Brown Turner, 59, of Hayes, died at her home June 20, 2012 with her loving family at her side after a courageous battle with cancer.

Pam was an active and faithful member of Providence Baptist Church. She was a legal secretary with the Law Offices of Dusewicz and Soberick, P.C. for 22 years and enjoyed working with the attorneys and other legal secretaries there. She had also been a member and officer of the Gloucester Legal Secretaries Association, a volunteer, and on the Board of the Salvation Army.

Pam had a great love for nature and what it teaches us and she enjoyed sailing, being on the water with her husband and best friend in their boat "Miss Pamela," riding their tandem bike, traveling in their RV from the mountains to the sea, especially going to the Outer Banks, vacationing at Nags Head and Rodanthe.

Pam was very open and honest and an inspiration to many. She was a beautiful person, who loved, and was loved by family and friends and will be remembered for her kindness and caring spirit and the "hat lady" who wore the most beautiful hats.

She was preceded in death by her granddaughter, Brooke Schaumleffel.

She is survived by her husband, William H. "Bill" Turner; daughters, Teresa Schaumleffel, Kimberly Colarik, Jana Danner; five grandchildren, Lindsay Danner, Jackson Danner, Tyler Schaumleffel, Hunter Schaumleffel, Logan Danner; sister, Jerrie McAbee; brother, Boyce Brown.

A Celebration of Life Service conducted by the Rev. Richard Croxton was held 2 p.m. Sunday, June 24, 2012 at Providence Baptist Church. Interment followed in Rosewell Memorial Garden. The family received friends Saturday, June 23, 2012 from 7-8:30 p.m. at Hogg Funeral Home, Gloucester Point.
