Pamela T. Vigil-Wong

Pamela Vigil-Wong, 66, of Delta, CO, passed away peacefully on September 2, 2025.

Pam was born on January 24, 1959, and grew up in northern New Mexico, where her ancestors have lived on the land for centuries. She worked in many small communities where she and her family lived, including the Carson National Forest, the Idaho Springs Public Library, the Grand Canyon Railway, the Delta County School District, and St. Michael’s Catholic Church.

She was the ultimate helper, always willing to lend a hand, say a prayer, or offer support to anyone in her community. She was a devout Catholic and was a faithful and dedicated member of the local congregation; she took communion to home-bound parishioners, trained lectors and eucharistic ministers, and was often the first face that people saw when they came in for mass.

Pam loved spending time with her three grandchildren and read them too many books to count on her many visits. She enjoyed watching the Colorado Rockies, eating watermelon, and finding the perfect gift for her loved ones. She was happiest when she was at the home she adorned, among her family.

Pam was a devoted and thoughtful presence to those in her life – as a wife, mother, sister, and friend. She wanted to be remembered as being good and kind, and she will live on in all of our memories as such.

Pam was preceded in death by her parents, Rose and Gilbert Vigil, and is survived by her husband, Corey; two daughters, Anica (Ivan) and Pilar (Cyrus); three grandchildren, Hugo, Elena, and Adele; two sisters, Yolanda (James, Sierra, and Nieves) and Sylvia; and many nieces and nephews.

A rosary will be held on Tuesday, September 9 at 6 p.m. at St. Michael’s Church in Delta. The funeral mass will be at St. Michael’s Church on Wednesday, September 10 at 10 a.m., followed by the burial.
