Its hard to believe the 3 little first graders are in their 60's and even harder to believe that Pam is gone, we've known each other since we were 4. What a wonderful spirit, she will be missed by many, but we all have wonderful memories of Pam to remember. John I'll keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Pam was a special ray of sunshine, & the best example of a true friend. Though it's been years since we have spent time together, I will cherish her memory in my heart, and remember the great discussions we shared about life, children, husbands, veterinary businesses & the comradery shared. She truly had a servant's heart and lived out her Christian life at peace with everyone around her.
