My wonderful memories of Pandoura go back to the early 1970's but have not dimmed over the years. She was a funny, bright, caring person who left a forever imprint in my mind and heart. My sympathy goes out to her family. She will surely be missed but never forgotten.

My heart goes out to Louise and Pam. It just seems like yesterday that we were all on Breck Street in Rochester, playing together. I often thought of Pam and Pandoura and I was shocked and so saddened to hear of Pandoura's passing. She was always a sweet, sweet person. May God hold her in his care. Love, Karen Wilcox
