My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Years without seeing or talking to each other, true friends picked up where we left off. So thankful I was able to spend time with Pam in September 2017. We laughed, cried, talked about all the crazy things we did together. Pam was my first friend in Jr High, my best friend, my sister.
When we last spoke Pam said Barb don't worry about me I'll be ok, I want you to take care of yourself and be happy. Just remember all the crazy good times we had together.
With all the love and care Pam had from her parents Harold, Sandy (mom), Kelly, Melissa & Joseph by her side, Pam is at peace now.
Forever sisters Pam may you Rest In Peace.
Forever in my heart my friend love you!
