Dear Barry, Christina, Amy, Ian & extended fmaily – We are so sorry to hear of Pam&&single&&s passing.
As a high school colleague, there were so many fun events and that has continued to this day. Pam was the type of person that whenever you met up again – no matter how much time had lapsed – that you could just pickk up where you left off.
She was so good with my Dad when he was in need of assisted living – she had that kind, understanding, no-push approach – very thoughtful.
As a couple, we always thought you two were such a good fit and as a family – always supportive and loving.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Thinking of you all so much.

I extend my sympathies to all of Pam&&single&&s family on behalf of the South West CCAC where Pam was a dedicated and caring Care Coordinator for more than 25 years. Hundreds of clients in Huron County have benefitted from Pam&&single&&s support to get the home and community care they needed to remain in their homes. Many have stories of how Pam was their light in the darkness, helping their family when they were most in need, with a caring visit, a kind word and just the help they needed at that moment. Pam was an integral part of the Huron and Seaforth team and will be missed by everyone.
