"These words of deepest sympathy are sent with the hope that as time goes by, cherished memories will help bring you inner peace and make your loved one seem still very close to you. May the memories that mean the most to you live forever in your heart."
I had the pleasure of working closely with Pam from a distance; she and I became close; exchanging some of our work and family experiences. She often spoke of the love for her family; especially her three sons and her granddaughter Blakely - whom she was truly in love with. I actually had the pleasure to meet Pam last year when she came to DC for our seminar - I am so glad that I was able to be in her company during that time. Pam was truly aloving and caring person and I will truly miss her. .
