To Pam's family,
Please accept our condolences on your loss. We were very saddened to learn of Pam's passing after we returned from vacation. Pam used to live in Dick's father's and stepmother's house in Wakefield, and we will always remember her hospitality whenever we visited New London.

Pam's sense of humor and laughter will be sorely missed. All of her efforts on behalf of MPPA, working on different committees to help keep our pond healthy will long be appreciated. Most of all, the sound of her laughter will be missed.

Pam was a loyal and commited volunteer for countless years at New London Hospital. I will miss her honesty, directness and straight-talking. She believed in the value of a community hospital and inspired others to give their time, talent and support to many projects that helped the hospital. We have a lost a dear friend. Her sense of humor, laughter and many gifts enrich our memories and her dedication to this hospital will be long remembered.

To Pam’s family
I am saddened to hear about Pam, although I do appreciate your sending the email to share the news. As we live in Pennsylvania, I might not have heard for awhile.
I have known Pam since I was a little girl and she first bought Pamelot (my parents,Rose and Myke Simon, have a cabin on the pond.) About 3 or 4 years ago, my husband Eric and I bought the house next door to Pamelot and we have seen more of Pam as we have been lucky enough to spend a couple of weeks at...

Dear Pam,
How sudden. We know you were looking forward to your new location. We were so fortunate to be your next door neighbor for six years. We loved your sense of humor, your kindness to humanity, friends and neighbors, and your love for dogs... namely, Casey! New London was fortunate to have such a wonderful person.
