Alice, Don & Angie, The service was beautiful and the message was great you need to remember Pam as she was: always happy, always smiling and she found the good in everyone & everything. It was an unneccessary death, but you can't dwell on it, you'll just get angry, and it will make you crazy trying to figure it out and asking your self all those questions, why, why, why and she would want you to move on and get past this (easier said than done, I know). But she's with Ben now and you know he's hugging her and smiling.... you all take care & call if need anything, okay!
