Pamela J. Lien

Pamela Jean Lien, 66, of Taylor, died Thursday, Jan. 22, 2026, in her home. Pamela was born Aug. 31, 1959 in Mondovi, to Hugh and Alvina (Olson) Goard. Pamela married Keith Lien, the love of her life, Aug. 26, 2000, in Blair. Keith preceded Pamela in death, May 6, 2019.

Pamela graduated from Independence High School in 1977. She retired in October of 2023 from Waumandee State Bank as a personal banker. Pamela enjoyed reading and snuggling with her beloved cats. She loved her coffee! Pamela’s favorite greeting was “Hey Doll.”

Pamela is survived by six sisters, Janet (Jerry) Kube, Mary Ann Hoffend, Nancy (Dennis) Dubiel, Brenda (David) Loga, Sally

(Raymond) Knudtson and Linda (David) Byom and their families; Keith’s children, Jesse (Jessica), Toni Najera-Rodriguez and Trent (Kali) and their families; mother-in-law Evelyn; brother-in-law Allan; and sister-in-law Debbie and their families.

In addition to her parents and husband, Pamela was preceded in death by her father-in-law, Arnold; a sisterin-law, Terry; a brother-inlaw, Craig (in infancy); and

a great-nephew, RJ Basten.

Pamela will be forever missed, never forgotten and forever in our hearts. May she rest in peace with her beloved husband, Keith. Pamela’s last wishes were to be cremated, to have no visitation or funeral, just a memorial service which will be in Woodlawn Cemetery, rural Taylor, at a later date.
