At a loss for words except that we had some wonderful times. I felt so fortunate to call her friend and will never forget her example of courage, strength and class. She was the real deal, an amazing woman!

To John and family: You have my deepest sympathy. I last saw Pam in high school and remember her fondly as a kind and beautiful soul. May you find strength and comfort in her wonderful legacy of love and family.

To John and the children, I have to say that Pam was a very special friend to me in college. We had lost track of each other over the years, had our families, worked in the communities in which we lived. But with the passing of Pam, I realized that I had lost one of my best friends from earlier in life, and for that I have sorrow in my heart. But after reading all the kind words spoken in Pam's behalf, I feel lucky in knowing that her kindness and concern for others never changed, that she was that same person I knew in high school and college. Good will hold her in the palm of his hand until John and his family arrive. Then John and Pam can stroll over heaven together.
And at the going down of the sun, and in the morning we will remember her. God speed Brian Dobler

I did not know Pam for as long as many others. However, Pam and John were golf students of mine. I always looked forward with joy when Pam was coming for a lesson. She was a great learner of the game and her positive spirit was very uplifting. Many times I didn't want the hour to end. Sometimes after the lesson we would talk about family--in which her love for John and the children/grandchildren would shine. Pam was a special person who gave much to others, myself included. My prayers for John, Erin and Justin and the rest of the family are for comfort and knowledge that her pain has ended and she is in heaven. God bless you all and for Pam special prayers and thank you.

To my former 5th grade teacher:
You were an inspiration to me. Taught me to believe in myself, to endure, and to aim for the stars. Plus, you never wanted me to settle for anything less than what I deserved. You will always have a special place in my heart, Pam. Every single conversation that I've had over the phone with you, or in person was always about reminding me that I was special and dearly loved. You rarely wanted to talk about yourself, but only to ensure that I was doing well. You gave hope and brought life to many students, especially to mine. Only God knows why he wanted you back so soon, but in the meantime, I know that you are happy and rejoicing above. I love you, Pam! ❤ I can't help the tears from flowing down my cheeks right now. Praying for your family. See you on the other side someday. Many hugs and kisses!!!
I just have to addI still can't believe you're gone.

To my sister who; was an amazing wife to John, a mother/grandmother that tirelessly worked to always be there for them, helped me through hard times, celebrated all my family events, was a true confidant, performed more selfless acts than anyone I know, and always made time for fun with family/friends!
God Bless and Rest In Peace.
