"Pam will be so missed in this world she brought light to everyone she met and everywhere she went. Our hearts and prayers go to her wonderful son Corey, your Mom was one of a kind."

Cori Jo Blahnik-Ackerman & Family from Cuba City, WI

"Pammie was definitely one of a kind and such a sweet, sweet soul. We have loved her being part of our family and were honored to be part of her chosen family. We will miss surprising her when we were in town, and at family gatherings. We will miss her smile and her laugh and her softspokeness. I will never forget her words of wisdom for traveling, her secrets to doing it for less (or free!), and her passion for providing awareness of Marfan's Syndrome and the love of her son, Corey. We've definitely lost one of the good ones. We love you, Pammie!"

Dawn Jerrett from Dubuque , IA

"Heaven definitely gained another angel. Gone too soon. Hugs thoughts and prayers to all your loved ones Pammie. Sure won't be the same without you. Thank you for all the fun and laughter. Love you."

Dan and Maura Cerling from St Charles, IL

"It was our pleasure and good fortune to have lived across the street from Pam. We will miss watching Pam leave on her many trips, taking walks around the neighborhood and just relaxing in her yard. Pam’s positive vibes we’re something we held dear to us. Cory we know how much she loved you and you have been a wonderful attentive son! Pam was so proud of you. We are so sorry for your loss of this beautiful lady."

Chris Pfeifer from St. Charles , IL

"Pammie was an honorary member of our family for over forty years. She was a sister to me and an aunt to my girls. She was a very unique person, one of a kind. We always enjoyed having her at our family gatherings over the years. I enjoyed hearing about her travels and seeing the beautiful pictures she took. She should have been a professional photographer. Our family won’t be quite the same without her. She will be truly missed. We have another angel watching over us. RIP Pammie and say hi to all our family and friends in heaven."

Brandi Murphy from Saint Charles , IL

"Pammie was a kind, free spirit. She brought a great sense of humor to every family event and many many stories. I loved her desire to to travel. She always knew the best places to go and what to do there. Best wishes in heaven- say hi to everybody up there. We will miss you!!!"

Rosemarie Blahnik from Holland, MI

"Pam was such a sweet soul and bright light in the world. She cared for everyone like they were family. She was family to the Blahniks. She took amazing care of my dad, my mom, my brother and the rest of the family. Whether playing cards, folding clothes, doing dishes or playing board games, it was always a good time when Pam was involved. Rest in peace, Pam, and know that you are loved. Love, Ro"

Betsy Kline from Aurora, IL

"I met Pammie years ago when my sister married her brother. She has always been very sweet. RIP Pammie, you will be missed by many."

Barbara Lindgren Driscoll from Lakewood, CO

"Pam's mother, Irene, and my mother, Doris where best of friends. I have known Pam all my life. She has been my inspiration on how to live life to the fullest, with dignity, grace and a lot of laughs. Pam is genuinely the kindest person I have ever known. We kept in touch through Christmas letters. I will miss reading about Pam's adventures and her homemade postcards of the places she visited. Cory, please take comfort that your mom was loved by many."

Linda (Taylor) Yoder from Florence, OR

"Pam was a classmate of mine at Saint Pat's grade school who stayed in touch through the years. Her Christmas letters were jam-packed with her adventures traveling around the country, sometimes to visit with me. What a wonderful person. Words fail to describe her. A true original."

Lenore Wilkas from Shorewood , WI

"I had a summer job during college and got to know and lobe Pammie. She was so much fun. Always a delight. I remember on my birthday she got an egg carton label (we were working at a label-making place) and shrink wrapped it and wrote "Happy Birthday to a Good Egg!" I still have it and it always makes me smile! I am sure she is enjoying heaven and everyone is enjoying her! Rest in eternal peace."

Mike from Leighly, IL

"Pam was the sweetest person I ever met."
