Bruce, Courtney,Elliot, there is not a doubt not even a shred in my mind of where Pam is now. She is with the one she put her hope, trust, and faith in. I grieve with you on the loss, she was a much loved sister in Christ. I hope we all find peace in knowing she is home, and when our time comes she and our Lord and Savior will be there rejoicing and welcoming us home as those loved ones that went on before us rejoiced and welcomed her home. My prayers are with you.
