Not sure what to say?

I am so saddened to learn of Pam's death. I met her long ago when she was a JAG lieutenant. I got to know her much better through the Bar Association, where I was always so impressed by her work ethic and managerial skills. But most of all by her personal warmth and compassion. She has a place in my heart. She will be greatly missed.

I am beyond sad to see the news of Pam's passing. We were law school roommates (with little Kevin, too), and I was so lucky to have her friendship. She was an incredible person. My heart goes out to her family. Such a loss.

Pam was a very warm, kind, and generous person who I enjoyed spending many unforgettable moments with. I felt very blessed to have known her as her brother in law and very sad to be informed of her passing.

Pam. You are missed. A selfless and kind person, and a consummate professional and leader. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Rest in Peace.

To live in the hearts that we leave behind is to never die.

Pam was simply wonderful. Her bright, compassionate spirit and her unwavering dedication to helping those who struggle made her a once-in-a-lifetime friend. I will cherish our times together and carry her memory as a guiding inspiration. My heart is with her daughters and all who loved her. The world is dimmer without her, and would be a better place with more people like her. I will love and miss her always. A friend forever, Cheryl Niro

Megan & Samantha, my heart is filled with sorrow. I have many memories of your mom when we lived in Niskayuna. I hope you find comfort in your memories. K. Mills xoxoxo

I will forever cherish my friendship with Pam. So many memories...the late night phone calls that always started off with the long "Seinfeld" hellooo and we would both laugh and the spur of the moment car rides to nowhere in particular. I am so sorry that you had to endure any suffering, but now you are with God, the angels, Kevin and your Dad. I hope your family finds comfort in knowing how many people loved Pam. All that knew Pam are blessed.
