I had no idea Pam had died. She was a wonderful neighbor and a dear friend a lifetime ago. My deepest sympathies go out to her loved ones. Pam was one of a kind. I walked Chloe for and and fed her fish yearly. She held a special place in my heart. See you on the other side my friend. Love, Barbara & Skiddy
