Pamela Lutz Obituary

Pamela Dawn "Pam" (Puckett) Lutz, 61, of Terre Haute, IN, passed away on October 24th, 2025. Pamela was born August 22nd, 1964 in Streator, IL, the daughter of Delbert and Constance (Franks) Puckett. Pamela graduated in 1982 from Sullivan High School in Sullivan, Indiana. Pamela was known for her big heart, often giving above and beyond her means. She put others first, especially her kids and grandkids, always making sure their needs were taken care of before her own. Most of her career involved cooking of some kind, something she also loved to do with her grandkids. You could find them in the kitchen making her famous lasagna, cinnamon rolls, or whatever else they could throw together. For the last sixteen years of her life, she took on the role of "Nana". The love and devotion she gave this role will live on for generations to come. Remaining to cherish Pamela's memory are her daughter Chelci (Russell) Black; grandchildren, Chloe Hall, Cayden Lutz, Paxton Black, Ivy Black; former spouse, Leslie Lutz; longtime partner, Lincoln Whitecotton; mother, Constance Puckett; brothers, Todd (Ann) Puckett, Shawn Puckett; sisters, Susan (Mike) Dempsey, Kerri (Remy) Mathes, along with several nieces and nephews and her fluffy fat cat Honeyboy. Pamela is joyfully reunited with her son, Bradly William Lutz; granddaughter, Madilynn Faith Lutz; father, Delbert Puckett; and brother, Mike Puckett. The family has chosen cremation. A memorial gathering will take place on November 15th, 2025 at the Sullivan Indiana VFW Post 201 W. Illinois St., from 2pm to 4pm. Online condolences may be left at www.samaritanfunerals.com To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Pamela "Pam" Dawn (Puckett) Lutz, please visit our floral store.
