I would like to express me deepest sympathy for your loss. My heart aches for all of you at the passing of your dear Pamela. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
When there are no words to say,,,, May the love of friends give you comfort. May the love of God give you peace.
Hugs, Brenda.

I am so sorry for your entire family. I used to see Pam when she would deliver at work. I was so close to your family when you were younger because of Melissa and Gayle. It is hard to believe that another of your family is now gone. Loosing a sibling is never easy no matter how old you get. You have my sympathy.
Dear Jenna, (& Family)
I don’t know if you remember us (Mike’s parents) but heard of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We often think of you and remember good times (like baking xmas cookies in my kitchen).
They say “time heals all wounds” and keep your Mom in your heart.

I am so sorry for your loss, Pamela use to deliver here where I work. She was a wonderful lady. I have to say after reading this I wish I had got to know her better and talked to her more. I worked with her mother at Kmart when we opened the store in the mall; and now that I know that I can see where she got her energy and compassion for others. Again I am sorry for your loss.
To the Martin Family, my deepest sympathy to you all. Pam was my daughter’s friend and she delivered to us at work. God has taken her because HE needs her more than we do. Bless all your family members and peace be with you all.
We would like to express our deepest sympathy for your loss. Pam was a wonderful lady and will surely be missed.
