Forever in Our Hearts: Pamela N. Mckenzie Born on June 9, 1968, in Cleveland, Ohio, Pamela was a cherished gift to her parents, Lewis and Sandra Daniels. She loved to dance and brighten the lives of those around her, and her humor lifted spirits even on the hardest days. Through every trial, she met challenges with resilience and grace, inspiring all who knew her. Pamela lived a life fueled by determination and a vibrant spirit. She began her journey at Empire School of Beauty while she worked at Olivia's as a stylist assistant. She later changed careers and attended Thompson Institute. She brought her caring nature and strong work ethic into the role of Medical Office Management. Everything she pursued, she pursued with a passion that made the journey unforgettable. Pamela was the devoted and beloved wife of Garfield Mckenzie, with whom she shared a life built on faith, partnership, and deep affection. They enjoyed one another's company and found joy in the simplicity of everyday life. She was a proud mother to her three children, Keyon Daniels, Tye Mckenzie, and Nyla Mckenzie, and a loving stepmother to Garfield McKenzie Jr. and Gregory McKenzie. Her children filled her life with endless joy. As described by her girls, "Mommy had a smile that could brighten up a million faces. It lit up every room, every moment, and every memory we have of her. We will carry that light with us forever." As the fifth of twelve siblings, Pamela was shaped by a large and loving family. She is cherished by her siblings Lewis Daniels Jr., Tyrone Daniels, Renee Spells (Fred), William Laws, Cherish Daniels, Kelli Daniels, Gabriel Daniels, Christianna Daniels, Julia Daniels and Elijah Daniels, along with her treasured bonus sisters, Ruthie Reaves and Bernadett Waites. She is reunited in eternal peace with her beloved sister, Ramona Daniels. Pamela's love extended to many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends who will forever remember her gentle heart and joyful presence. Pamela will be deeply missed and forever carried in the hearts of those who loved her. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Pamela McKenzie, please visit our floral store.
