As a mother, grandmother, aunt, friend, teacher, musician, knitter, traveller and lifelong learner, Pam lived life to the fullest. She will be remembered by all for her sweet character, kindness and concern for others. Thoughtful, gracious and forgiving, she met everyone with a warm smile and endearing word. She always loved a good laugh and retained her sense of humour to the end. Special thanks to the staff of Christie Gardens for the gentle and loving care they provided over the past few years.
