I have a million memories of Pam throughout my childhood and life. We had a cottage on Coventry Lake a couple streets over from the DeCandia's and spent our summers and weekends together. Our families picnicked, boated, vacationed, and had so many good times together - too many to count. I cherish all these memories and will have them with me forever. My heart goes out to Bob, Christina, Mark, and families. Thank you Pam for being such a sweet and wonderful role model in my childhood. I will miss you XOXOXO Amy McElwaine

I was shocked today to find out about our beloved Pam. I just came home from a funeral in New York. I am so sorry that I missed Pam´s service. She will be greatly missed and I will miss seeing her for our luncheons. You can be sure that their will be a flower for her at our Mystic memorial we have every year. My God bless and keep her where she will be finishing her quilts. Amen

Bob, Chrissy, Mark and Family,
We were so very sorry to hear of Auntie Pam's passing. She was such a loving and caring person to us all. There are so many memories running through my head from our days at the lake to family gatherings. 2nd stop after my parents at Christmas and Thanksgiving....She will surely be missed by many. There is a full house of Rose's waiting to greet her in heaven. I'll miss her very much. God rest her soul.
