Pam was born in St. Louis, Missouri and passed just days before turning 82 years old on 08/15/2025 following a massive stroke. She had been graciously and thoughtfully cared for by Delmar Gardens South Pathways Community Hospice team.
Dear mother of Gregory M. Wood and Sherry E. [nee Wood] Andrews [Bryan] all of whom were lovingly at her side for her final moment. Most loving sister of Patricia [nee Hofer] Ott [John] was there in spirit, praying just a minute before her passing asking for mercy and to end any needless suffering. We are so thankful and humbled by the peaceful and swiftness of her passing.
Dearest grandmother to Melissa [nee Wood] Phillips, Timothy Wood, Matthew Andrews [Noor Alali] and Austin Andrews. Dearest great grandmother to Aviah and Eden Phillips.
Pam loved to dance, play golf, and was an excellent cook. She enjoyed cruising and traveled abroad. She was unconditionally loving and a loyal friend to many. She will be remembered for her laughter, kindness, honesty, compassion, generosity and simple beauty.
You were my mother, my friend and my champion. I will see and hear you everyday, in myself and my children and every memory of you. Our love is frozen in time so just Keep Dancing!
You was a mother to me and my sister. You were awesome.I will miss you and love you from eternity
Sorry to lose you, I am praying for your family. Sherry you are in my mind.
I was so blessed to have Pam as my sister. I don’t know what I would have done without her after our mother passed when I was 16. She was there whenever I needed her even though she was married with 2 young children. It was just her way, such a giving and loving woman. Memories of her will comfort me until we meet again.
I knew Pam through Eva Estrada in early in the 80s. Very kind loving person and a very good swing dancer. Wish she would have married my friend Don Werner. They were a good match. My sincere condolences to her children. Bob Pelc
I will remember Pam for her keen sense of humor, and how gracious she was. She instantly made you feel at ease and as if you were family. She had a zest for life, and enjoyed the best life had to offer. I feel for the large void she left in her family’s heart. She was truly one of a kind.
My sweet dear friend, Pam. There was never a time when I needed her. She was right there. We saw each other through dating,our children’s marriage, breakups, having our grand babies,and daily problems. We could talk about everything or nothing at all. We knew if we needed someone to listen we were right there no matter when. Pam was my best friend. Rest in peace Pam. I will miss you every day of my life. Love Carol
