Pamela K. Croxall, 74, of Ocala, Florida, and formerly of Elkhart, Indiana, died on Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2024, at Adventhealth in Ocala, Florida, at 5:32 p.m.
She was born May 12, 1950, in Elkhart Indiana, to Robert and Theres (Smole) Fletcher.
Pam is survived by her husband Stephen Croxall of Ocala, Florida, her daughter Michelle (Mikey) Kemp of Elkhart, Indiana, daughter Cindy Croxall of Marietta, Gergia, as well as her grandchildren Dylan Croxall Armstrong of Marietta, Georgia, and Ridge and Reese Howard of Elkhart, Indiana. Pam is also survived by her brother, Tom Fletcher, sister Linda Cipov and brother Dennis Fletcher all of Elkhart, Indiana.
Pam was a 1968 graduate of Elkhart High School, where she was a part of the baton twirling team. She met Stephen Croxall their sophomore year and would marry him on Aug. 1, 1970. Pam was an avid golfer throughout her life. She enjoyed the golf league at Christian Creek for many years in Elkhart, where she spent time with lifelong friends. She continued her love of golf and joined a 9-hole and 18-hole league in Florida. She continued to make new friends to live life to the fullest in their new community.
Nothing meant more to Pam than family and friends. Pam chose to dedicate her life to raising her children and taking care of her husband, making their house a home and selflessly putting everyone needs before herself. She had the warmest heart, was a wonderful listener, and would drop everything to those that needed her, whether it was friends or family. She continued to be an amazing example to her grandchildren, not missing events at school, a game, and teaching the importance of "family."
Pam loved the Lord, and her faith gave her strength and guidance throughout her life. When needing advice, she would always tell you to put it in God's hands, and he will guide you with the right path. Pam attended Meadowbrook Church in Ocala, Florida.
Pam wishes were to be cremated. There will be a celebration of life with her family at a later date.

I will miss her smile and all the laughs we shared. Her eyes lit up when she talked about her family. I'm so happy I got to know Pam at OTOW. Whether it be golf or lunch, bingo or bunco, or whatever other occasion brought us together...we had fun. Fly high my friend...your light shined bright!

To Pam´s Family - i was so surprised and sorry to hear of Pam´s passing. I know all your hearts are broken and parts of your lives will never be the same again. Pam was one of those people that you feel will somehow just be around forever. Growing up Pam was the older sister we always wanted to hang around with. I know she will be terribly missed by her family and many friends.
Regards, Kathleen Ritter Sproatt
