Pam was such a fair and fun person to be around and to have worked with...so very sorry.

With deepest sympathy,

Will very much miss my dear friend Pam-she was always such a resource on my black thumb gardening and sharing recipes with me. Lunch was always a hoot and I am so grateful that she was a part of my life. Our chance working together for Wilson Commencement Park turned into a friendship that lasted years. I am so glad I had the chance to visit with her on Mother's Day with her nails all painted a bright red! Will always remember her from then. My sympathies to Bim, Katie and Lee and their familes.

Bim
What a terrific lady! We will all miss her fabulous organizational skills, persuasive people talents and never-say-die personality.
For more than 20 years she was the "glue" that helped make the Rochester Business Classic the best charity golf tournament in Rochester.
We were blessed to have known her.
