Pamela Andrews, loving daughter, sister, aunt and friend passed away to our Lord on Saturday, December 28 in Marin County. She was born April 23, 1946 in Sacramento and lived with her family in Arden Oaks, graduating from El Camino High School in 1964 and subsequently from the University of Nevada, Reno in 1968. She lived for the past several years in Woodacre, California where she worked as a district manager for Farmers Insurance until her retirement in 2012. She loved animals and gardening, but most of all spending time with her family and many friends; all of whom were very dear to her. She was predeceased by her mother and father, Joanne and George Andrews and her sister, Diane (Andrews) Athanasiou of Sacramento. She is survived by her brother, Peter Andrews of Los Angeles; brother-law, George Athanasiou of Sacramento, nephew and niece, Ilias Athanasiou of Sacramento and Joanne (Athanasiou) Johnson and husband, Darrell of San Luis Obispo; grand twin nephews, Michael and Nicholas Johnson and grandniece, Katherine Johnson of San Luis Obispo; Aunt Georgia Dariotis of Sacramento; cousins, George, Chris and Michael Dariotis and Rhea (Dariotis) Brunner of Sacramento, Fred Twyman of Charlottesville.

May her memory be eternal.
Rest in peace my dear and beautiful sister with a smile like none other. Peter Andrews

Pamela and I met 15 years ago, she was my Republic Insurance and FACT rep. We became fast friends, her smile and my jokes about the insurance business kept us going. I will miss her smile, and her visits to my office, especially the dim sum lunches that she I enjoyed so much.

I have known Pam my whole life and will never forget her. In fact I had such a crush on her that I talked my mother into naming my sister Pamela. Her smile in this picture of her says it all. Rest in peace.

I remember always looking at Pam when I was a young girl and thinking what a fun loving beautiful person so full of energy. And as an adult she remained true to that nature. What a great cousin who was taken far too soon and will be missed. My condolences to Pete her dear friends and to all the
family. She will always be remembered.

I had the privilege to work with Pam for over 9 years at Farmers. I will always remember her smile, her laugh, her passion for what's right, her fun-loving spirit. Pam loved her family, Dan & her pets deeply. I wish I had been able to talk to her one more time. Though she was taken from us so abruptly, she did have a full life. Pam was a beautiful person. Rest in Peace my friend.

I had the privilege to work with Pam at Farmers for over 9 years. What I'll remember most about her was her fun-loving spirit, her wonderful laugh, her love for her family and her partner Dan, her love of great wine, her turtlenecks, her unique antique jewlery and her guine support for standing up for what's right. I had such a great time working with her and thoroughly enjoyed the time and laughs she and I shared. Pam lived a full life and I'm very glad God allowed me to be a part of it. Rest in Peace my friend.
