Audie Murphy was America's most decorated soldier in WWII. After the War he became a movie star. As he aged he started producing films. He died in a plane crash while flying to meet a financer for a film that was over-budget. He did not have "completion insurance," on the film and the plane's owner was not properly insured. This left his widow, Pam Murphy, at the mercy of the banks and others Audie owed money to. That resulted in foreclosure of the San Fernando Valley where the Murphys and their two infant sons lived.
Pam was left with hers and her boys' clothes, some personal items and two aging cars. She was lucky enough to find a job at the VA, where I met her. Veterans loved her and she returned the affection by helping them navigate a sometimes confusing system. I hired her to help them full time as the Patient Representative in the Walk-In Clinic, where she smoothed out the bumps for sick Vets. In the 1980s-1990s Pam was a well known to Veterans, their representatives and several members of the local news media. Pam figuratively "worked herself to death." If I could meet Joe Biden this moment, I would beg him, "Please, fix this problem in Pam's name."
