Pam was like a second mom to me growing up in St. Louis. She was warm and kind and funny and wholly down to earth. She loved her kids and she loved her dogs and she loved a good laugh more than anything. I didn’t get to see her much in the last few years as I grew up and had my own family far away from St. Louis but every time we would visit, there she was, smiling, laughing and taking care of someone, somehow.
I’m lucky to have known her and be someone that was loved by her. Her memory is a blessing to me and my heart goes out to Tom, Nicole, Jason and Sarah. She was a giant and there will never be another like her.
Rest in laughter and love, Pam. You’ve earned it.
Tom, Nicole, Jason, & Sarah, my deepest sympathy about Pam. A great person and neighbor – she will be missed. She fought health issues over several years to be able to stay here for all of you. Know she knew how much she was loved. Remember that she loved all of you, grandchildren and friends and wanted only the best for you all. I am so sorry and my heart hurts for you all!
