Obituaries

Even though my wife Pam and my children Emily and Andy did not have the opportunity to get to know Pam well, we all feel the loss. My most vivid memories were when I was quite young and either stayed with Uncle Bob and Aunt Mary and the family for a few days when we would visit during summers and of course the wonderful times that we spent at the pond. Pam always had an infectious smile that could not be ignored and an upbeat calmness about her that you could not miss and that was never faked. Her confidence in life I believe must have been and inspiration to most people that she met and knew. I loved her as much a a cousin could, and though I will miss her, I know that her heart lives on as strong as ever in her children, though they are children no more, in their spirit and zest for life. Our thoughts are with you all.
