Pam was a member of the Second Christian Church, Atchison and was active the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life for many years before she, herself, was diagnosed. She enjoyed sewing, crafts, painting, reading and especially spending time with her children and grandchildren who adored her. In her words, “They are the absolute best part of life.” Pam was known by many as an extremely hard-working, grateful, and thoughtful person who went out of her way to help others.
