I am so sorry to learn about this. While it has been many years since our families have overlapped, I have very fond memories of Pam and the volunteer work we did together in Lawrence Township. She was both dedicated and fun to be with, and I send my condolences to all of you. I hope the many happy memories all of you have will be of some comfort.
