Pamela Jeanne (Wenzel ) Badger, 72 , of Milford, formerly of Medway, passed away peacefully at her home on December 30. She was the beloved wife of the late Peter F. Badger, who passed away in 2022.
Born in Brighton on November 30, 1953, Pamela was the daughter of the late Joseph and Virginia (Gemmel) Wenzel. She was raised in Medway, where she spent much of her life before moving to Milford ten years ago.
Pamela was a graduate of Medway High School and went on to earn her nursing degree from the New England Deaconess School of Nursing.
