Providing the HOPE to survive today, tomorrow and beyond

Pamela A. Taschuk, 48

MN, Lino Lakes

October 1, 2009

She is survived by her sons, Ryan and Josh, her parents, her siblings, and three stepsons, as well as other dear family members and friends.

In the two months prior to her death, Pamela tried to protect herself from her abusive husband, Allen Taschuk. Over their 23-year marriage he had hit, punched, pushed, and held her captive many, many times and had threatened to kill her at least four times.

On August 26, Allen was arrested for domestic assault and false imprisonment. Two days later he was released from jail without conditions after posting $5,000 bail.

Pamela obtained an Order for Protection on September 10 and filed for divorce on September 25.

After she returned to her home on October 1st from a support-group meeting at a battered women’s shelter, Allen came to her home and shot her, called 911, and then shot himself.
