To Butch and Lil'Mo and your family: I wanted you to know that Pan will live forever through her loving advice and words of wisdom. She called me two weeks prior to her departure while attempting to call someone else. The both of us thought of it as simply a misdial where she mixed my number with the person she was intending to dial. However, I now realize that it was not a mistake as this was the first time in a long time, as well as the last time that I spoke with her. This is an example of the power that exists beyond our human understanding. Likewise, you shall have supernatural PEACE, a Peace that surpasses (human) understanding. From Lesa (David Lee's daughter)

To Larry (Mike), Ruby and the Butcher Family, May God continue to bless and keep you all during this time as He alone is able to do. Remember those precious memories of Pandora and be thankful for His gift to your father and the rest of the family. Be reminded that to every follower of the Lord there comes a time when the voice of God will say, "Welcome Home"...Through all of this..The Lord is our keeper...Psalm 121
Grace & Peace

Dear Pandora,
I know you are an angel to all of us. Thank you for your kindness, generosity & pleasant spirit. Your voice when you called to invite us to your home was the most melodious voice I have heard. For some reason your tone reminded me of my oldest sister's voice when she called to tell me our mother had died. Your voice was filled with such joy, delight, & harmony. I felt so honored that you had called. My sister lives in California & her tone is always like that. Pam, I can only think of you as an angel. I hope your spirit will always live on in each of us & our children as well. Thank you for blessing our lives with your joy. We will miss you, but I know your spirit will live in us. We will miss you, but God needed another angel.

Pandora: I can't believe you are gone. I recently was talking to you about reading the scripture in church together. Your response was yes I would like to read but I am going to need some help walking up the steps. My response was yes you can hold on to me. I am going to miss you my friend. I know you are reading in heaven to everyone. Rest my sister.
Bless you Mr.Butcher and your entire family.
