I have so many years of memories with Pam and and the rest of the family. We worked at Tops, got into plenty of mischief, and caused Ruth some gray hairs, I'm sure. Pam and I were pregnant together twice and spent much time together; she will be missed. I just came across a picture of Pam at my baby shower, right after having Crystal. I have lost contact with you Ruth since I moved to the Rockford area, but would love to hear from you. 815-621-4016. Ruth, Sonny, Frank, Carol, I am so sorry and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

For all of my family, Pam will be missed --- her quiet smile and demeanor won her lots of friends and love in her lifetime. One of her favorite games to play when we were growing up was "Life" ... I hope that we all remember just how much life Pam brought to those around her when she was near. Take care, God Bless, and I love you all....
