Pauline "Pat" Madelyn Bedeger Stalcup Obituary (1923 - 2011)

Pauline “Pat” Madelyn Bedeger Stalcup passed away peacefully at home on April 21, 2011 in West Valley City. Pat was born November 3, 1923 in Los Angeles, California, to Harley and Erma Mildred Seager Bedeger. She married Wayne P. Bess in 1941. She had two sons, Gary Bess and Bobby Le Roy Bess. They later divorced. She married Donald Lee Stalcup in 1965. It was love at first sight. She was my girl and my soul mate. Everyone who saw them together saw that love. They had their son, Scotty, in that marriage and the three of them became the “Three Musketeers” and still were until she went home to Heaven. She was a member of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church but health problems held her back from going as often as she wanted but she loved her church. She also loved nursing and decorating homes. The beauty of their home showed that. She is preceded in death by her parents, several sons, and family members. She is survived by her loving husband Donald, son Scotty, sister Joy (Tom) Thomas, sister-in-law Barbara (Gailen) Foreman, and nine grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, two great great grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews. We will miss you, “Sug.” Save me a spot and I will once again be with you and love you forever.
