Pamela Martine Obituary
On September 6, 2025, Pamela Jay Martine quietly drew her last breath, her difficult struggle with Alzheimer's disease was finally over. She died at home, in New Canaan, with the things she cherished.
Pam's love of beautiful things led her to the world of antiques and, eventually, to become an antiques dealer. Her eye, while informed by many, was natural and uniquely her own. Pam was drawn to an object by its design, form, often its surface, sometimes by its colors – from rusted iron to painted wood, from soft textiles to carved stone, arranged by her hands they blended to a harmonious whole. Pam spent the last five and a half decades living life alongside her husband and best friend, Gene. Pam also leaves her brother, Kim Rynier Prall, and her niece, Pamela Prall Fontaine, and her niece's three children. Born July 18, 1946, Pam's parents were Robert Claude Prall and Jacqueline Brown Prall of Greenwich, Connecticut. She was predeceased by her brothers, Robert Prall and Lucian Prall, and her nephew, James Prall. In her final years, Pam was cared for by loving people from Elayne and James Schoke Jewish Family Services of Fairfield County (Elsie, Josseline, Sherline, and Nadege) and Waveny LifeCare Network/Visiting Nurse & Hospice of Fairfield County (Amanda and Lori).

Gene, I am so sorry for your loss. Pam was one of my all time favorite people. Her style and ability to design a beautiful setting at antique shows knows no equal. I was always in awe of her talent. She left the antique business at the peak, perhaps wisely as it hasn´t been the same these past 10 years. RIP Pam.

Lovely obituary for Pam. Brothers, Kim and Lucian (Bruddy) were my neighbors in Riverside (Owenoke/Wesskum Wood) where we tried to grow up in the `50´s. God Bless.
