PAMELA KAY HEBERT

Pamela Kay Hebert, a resident of Willow Springs, passed away Tuesday, June 22, 2021, while at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, MO. She was born June 29, 1957, to Donald Lee and Alice Ann (McCreary) Hebert in Willow Springs. She was 63 years old.

Pam grew up in Willow Springs and attended elementary through Junior High School here. When she was a Senior in high school, Pam moved to Alaska with her mother in October 1975. After returning to Willow Springs, Pam was employed at Rawlings Sporting Goods, where she laced gloves. She then became a dispatcher for the Willow Springs Ambulance and the Willow Springs Police Department during the 1980's. After becoming a CNA and a Med-Tech, she worked from 1990 to 1998 at Willow Health Care, Cabool Nursing Home, and NHC in West Plains, and Canton, North Carolina. She and her sister Paula operated a day care for children from 1998 to 2007. She was an avid reader and enjoyed reading books on her Kindle. But her favorite times were those spent with her great goddaughter, Sophia Smith. She will be greatly missed by her family, her friends, and all who knew and loved her.

She was preceded in death by both sets of grandparents; her mother, Alice Ann Dyer; and her father, Donald Lee Hebert.

She is survived by her twin sister, Paula Hebert of Black Rock, AR; brothers, Tom Pringle and Ronald Pringle, both of Willow Springs; her niece, Kyra Jade Pringle and nephew, Dylan Pringle, also of Willow Springs.

In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully requests donations in Pam's memory to the Willow Springs Scholarship Club or the Willow Springs Senior Center, and they may be left at the funeral home.

A graveside service for Pam will be held on Monday, June 28, 2021, at 1:00 P.M. at the Willow Springs City Cemetery with Pastor David Morse officiating. Arrangements are under the direction of Willow Funeral Home, LLC. Online condolences may be left at www.willowspringsfuneralhome.com
