Pam was the light of my life my angel my best love and friend all in one. My family fell in love with her the first she met them they treated her like one of family right off the bat. She was the daughter in law they always hoped to have and they did till god called her to heaven way too soon. Our plans were to be those old couples that holds hands out in public. I couldn’t ask for a better significant other. I’ll miss you honey soo very much till we meet in heaven and be together again holding hands again.

Pam was a very kind and loving person very much like her mother. Pam was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone. The world needs more people like Pam Matthews, kind, loving, and caring to everyone. Pam was one of those personalities that when you met her you instantly liked her and wanted to be around her. She was a true light shining on those that knew her and all of her friends. Pam will be missed. Pam we love you and look forward to seeing you again.

From the moment i met Pam I knew what a kind, generous, loving and beautiful person she was. I loved seeing how happy you and Jason made each other. You were meant to be. You will be missed but more importantly remembered forever.
Eric England
To Robyn, Daniel, Jay, and everyone else who loved and will miss Pam, my thoughts go out to you. Pam was absolutely one of the nicest people I’ve ever met and I am certain she will be missed by many, many people. I had the pleasure of working with her at Chase. She was a WONDERFUL teammate – always striving to do her best, always positive and upbeat, and always willing to help folks at Chase and in the community. We all have “good days” and “bad days” at work, but it seemed like Pam never had a bad day – always so positive; she made coming in to work each day more fun. I feel very fortunate that I had the opportunity to get to know such a beautiful person.

Robyn…I was very saddened to learn of your sister’s passing. Whenever I would talk to Cindy, I would always ask about her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as well as her significant other. I just finished talking to Jeanette from the Delaware Humane Society and made a donation in Pam’s name. Thinking of you Robyn, please be well.
