It's almost Christmas time in Richmond. One of Pam's favorite times of year. This year she is singing Christmas carols around the throne. She has made it home and is at peace. I know she is missing her family here on earth this year. I want to pray that each of you have a wonderful Christmas holiday, hold on to each other for support. As hard as it will be to get thru this Christmas Season just keep the faith and believe that one day you will all have a chance to be together again. You all know she is in heaven looking down on you and praying for each of you. Merry Christmas to the entire Harper family !!!!

I met Pam over the summer of 2008 through working at PCP. She was a ray of sunshine and I referred to her as a mirror me of Richmond, as I work in Lancaster plant. She was a woman full of life and spirit. She had a great energy full of laughter. I would like to extend my condolences for the loss to her family. May you find the strength you need through the memories of a very, very special woman.

To Jodi, Joseph & Jessica,
My heart breaks for your loss. I loved your mom so much. She was such a wonderful person. Her spirit to be around her was joyful. We known and been friends for 30 years now. WOW, what a shock, when we got that phone call. Jim and I have enjoyed being friends of all of you for so long now. My heart and love goes out to each of you. Please ban together now and be strong for each other. Pam was such a strong personality and so well loved. She would want that love to care on in her husband and children and grand-daughter. She loved Destiny more than life itself. She talked so often about her. God Bless each of you, and anything Jim or I may possibly be able to do to help out, please do not hesitate to call.
Love,
Jim & Kathy Shook - Chester, VA.

I was so sorry to learn of Pam's death. I just found her again last week and we were going to get together. We used to have so much fun in the past when our daughters were friends. I am sorry that I didn't get to see her before she passed away. Jessica, I know you, your brother, your Dad and the rest of the family will miss her. My thought and prayers are with all of you.

Words cannot express the emotions that are felt. My love goes out to the family and the memories, laughs, and tears I have shared with Pam will never be forgotten. We have all shared a great loss, but God will be receiving a great gift. I'll miss you girlfriend.

Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord

May God be with you and your family.

...to say we'll miss you is an understatement...We all know you love us and through prayer we can speak with you just fine..! You left some of yourself in us all. Thank you for taking care of my cousin Jody so well for so long...Love Linda and Joe Chalkley
