I'd love to know her through your words should you feel you can share here with us...
Pam was talented, intuitive, kind, generous and so much more. She loved animals and had 4 cats and a dog. She owned her own house and took great joy in decorating it. I remember she painted the old hardwood floor in the dining room - it was a beautiful flower design. I often wonder what the new owners did with it - whether they loved it or hated it. Pam was diagnosed with MS in 1997. She had a very responsible job at Herman Miller in Holland. She worked as long as she could then retired. She had to stop driving then started using a wheelchaair. She was still active on her computer. She had a website visited by a myriad of interesting people. In 2001 we decided that it would be better if she not live alone. I took early retirement and moved from South Bend to her house in Holland. I was with her for two years until she passed away in 2003. I am so glad I had that time with her.
