To my sweet Aunt Pam, your passing has left such a big hole in my heart and numerous tears flowing from down my face. I miss you so much all ready and really dread the upcoming holidays that you loved so much, without you! I feel like you and I were two of a kind and when no one else seemed to understand, you were always right there with open arms and had the words to ease the pain and sense of loneliness! You were always my biggest cheerleader and the distant warrior that was always on team, NO MATTER WHAT! I find comfort in knowing that you are finally at peace and in such a better place and to top it off, you are back in that dance floor with Uncle Bubba! Please keep an eye out for us all, I love you always and forever!!!
