Don, Spencer & Brett, Our Deepest sympathy is with you and your family as we remember days past in west Lincoln. Pam was a great gal.
I was not aware of Pam’s passing until this morning. I worked with Pam for many years at NDE. She was a delight to see in the halls, to speak with and always had a smile. Bless you Pam for your trials, God has lifted you in his arms.
I am so sad to find this out so late on this Monday morning. Just know that I loved working with Pam within the Office of Special Education and truly am sorry for your loss. She was a great person, who always assisted me with so many questions. My deepest sympathy. My prayers and thoughts will be with her family this morning.
