So sad to hear of Pam´s death. Many fond memories of being on the Board of Northbrook Community Nursery School with her and carpooling our toddlers to school. I yearly hang the hand made wooden ornaments she made on my Christmas tree. She painted an engine & railroad car with year and name for each Board Member. They are a lovely keepsake and now a memorial of a sweet caring friend.
RIP dear Pam.

I remember the many times I visited Pam in her home...such a gracious, hospitable, warm, engaging friend. She was always so upbeat, truly an inspiration in how she led her life. May she Rest In Peace and rise in glory.
