Pam was one of a kind. She was always smiling, singing or humming a tune. It was rare that I saw her get upset, which made her so unique. She had a joyous spirit and a big, caring heart. She will truly be missed. Rest In Heaven P.B for God makes no mistakes. #32 #SkinnerKid #BondedByBlueAndGold

My memories of Pam were of a soul always smiling and displaying joy. I had never seen anyone with such a contagious laugh or spirit before. While grief is prevalent the plans and purposes of God are greater. By divine order Myself and countless of others were given the opportunity to see what the joy of the Lord looks like in person...in Pam. My intercession is for the Butler family as they lean on the Lord for understanding and comfort. Pam is no longer in our past but for those of us who know the King of Glory Jesus Christ, she is now in our future.

It has been my pleasure to have worked along side most of this family for many years. I cherish your friendship and weep with your loss. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers! Because I surely care about your loss! I know Pam will be missed! Love you!

Pam was a true friend and one of the funniest people I've ever meet. It's not one memory I have from those years that don't include her. She will be missed, but her memory will live forever.

PB was one of a kind.. She could always make me laugh especially when I asked her to repeat what her roomate Candeece left on their answering machine....With her accent Pam would say, "This is Pahm and Candeece rooooom"... So hilarious... That's just one great memory I have of PB. And that voice of an angel..?? #ASU #32 #ladyram4life #skinnergirls #sisters4life #bondedbytheblueandgold

Pam I can't express in words what your presence in my life has meant to me. A part of me is lost now that you're not here in the physical sense but God is allowing my memories of you to provide comfort. You were more than a friend you were my sister. #foreverbondedbybluengold.
