What an awesome woman and inspiration Pam was!! I worked with her at Lame Deer IHS, and not a day would go by that she didn’t have a smile, good joke, positive criticism, or encouraging thought to share with any path she crossed. You will be greatly missed here on earth…..but once again God has proved he only takes the best!! RIP Pam……may we meet again someday on the other side.

Casey, Tony, Kelly & grandkids I am so sorry I want you to know I am thinking of your family & all her friends she had. Although we spoke on the phone several times. In those conversations I really felt how much she loved her family, friends & the life she lived as an awesome wonderful nurse. She was very caring, compassion & respectful about her job. I will never forget the fond memories we had while working with her in Lame Deer Clinic. My thoughts & prayers are with you ~ wishing you strength for today and comfort in the days ahead, knowing how much your loved one meant to so many…
