Salem
Wendy, D. Burge, 56, of Salem passed away Wednesday, September 23, 2023, in Danvers, following a brief journey with cancer. She was the loving wife and best friend of Scott E. Pelletier.
Born and raised in Ridgecrest, California, she was the daughter of the late Dennis and Carol (Gill) Burge. Wendy was a graduate of Scripps College in Claremont, CA, where she earned her Bachelor’s Degree. From almost infancy, Wendy loved the water and swam for many teams up to and through her college years. She was employed by the Eastern Bank in the mortgage department.
Wendy also loved to travel, “anywhere”. Some of Wendy’s and Scott’s favorites were an African Safari, a trip to the Dominican Republic, and a vacation in Key West wasn’t too shabby either. Wendy was a fun loving and positive person who loved nature, beauty and history. Her presence and smile will be greatly missed by many.
In addition to Scott, Wendy also leaves her loving daughter Genevieve M. Pelletier of Salem, her brother Robert Burge of Modesto, CA, their four- their four-legged pal Lilo, as well as several nieces and nephew Anderson Burge, Kayla & Tyler Pelletier and her large extended family.
