Pamela "Pam" Hemmings Obituary
Mrs. Pamela “Pam” Markland Hemmings, 67, of Advance, NC passed way at Forsyth Medical Center on Wednesday, June 26, 2024 after a courageous battle with lung disease. She was born May 15,1957 in Davie County. She was preceded in death by her parents, Steve and Mary Hendrix Markland; a brother, Connie Markland and her favorite dog, Bo Bo. Surviving is her husband, Rick Hemmings; three sons, Chad Hemmings (Jordan), Brent Hemmings (Savannah) and stepson Matt Hemmings (Laura); six grandchildren, Noah, Maddie, Ellie, Ethan, Ryleigh, Aubrey Hemmings, a special friend Judy Burton and Goddaughter Deanna Merritt.
Pam was a graduate of Davie High School. She enjoyed working with the public. Until her declining health she worked a variety of jobs, including waitressing, bartending, and jewelry sales.
Pam particularly loved being with her family, especially her grandchildren. She enjoyed traveling, beach trips with her friends and watching the birds while having her morning coffee. Her dog Bo Bo was her pride and joy. He was by her side continuously during her long illness at home. Pam never met a stranger and will be missed by many.
A graveside service will be held at 11:00 a.m. Wednesday, July 3, 2024, at Westlawn Gardens of Memory with Rev. Doug Klein officiating. The family will receive friends from 6-8 p.m. Monday, July 1, 2024 at Hayworth-Miller Kinderton Chapel.
