We were at a picnic, and Pam asked me for no special reason, if I would pray with her. I said sure. So we did, together. Pam always thought about and praised God...so I know she is with him now and very happy. John and I will truly miss her wonderful smile and her love for cats, that we both shared.
We will never forget her and our thoughts and prayers go out to Dave and her children. Love, John & Mary Ann
