My deepest sympathy to Pam's family at this sad time. Many years ago when children we were neighbours in Gill Street, and educated at Central School. In the passing years we reconnected at the New Plymouth Club and shared an interest in knitting. Pam was a lovely lady and will be much missed.

To Brett and Steven and Families
So sad to learn of Pam's passing. Have many special memories of her and Les from my time in the NP Lioness Club and her decorating our wedding cake and our visits to Huatoki St after moving to P/North and our daughter playing ball with Meghan. Receiving her hand crafted Christmas cards and our last chat. RIP Pam, now reunited with Les. Lots of love Valda & Mark. P/North

Oh dear Pam, this is a heavy moment in my life. Both you and Lesa were great friends with My Father and Mother, Barry and Nancy Whitmore. You guys were such great friends with me at the club, Les always loading me up with the that dram. Sad, really quite sad. You were friends with my parents and were such a fantastic woman and friend to me. I will miss you, Pam.
