Through the years, she enjoyed gardening, tending to her flowers, bike riding, kayaking, fishing and being at the pool and near the water.
In an odd circumstance, she ended up with five cats, four more than she wanted, and joked that she was “only one cat away from being the crazy cat lady”.
Pam enjoyed taking her grandchildren wherever they wanted or needed to go.
Surviving are sons, Shawn (wife, Arin) Shaver, Logansport, Joshua (wife, Monique) Suiter, Kokomo; sister, Vicky Hathaway, Logansport; stepfather, Richard "Dick" Allen, Logansport; four grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
