June 13, 2013 at 4:27 amTo Pam’s family and friends: I am so very sorry to hear of Pam’s passing. I have many fond memories of working with Pam at Wendy’s in Bridgewater. Such an elegant lady, such a strong work ethic. She was always so upbeat, no matter what was going on. She handled herself so well in the face of the “fun” that comes from working in the food service industry. I’d like to share with you a blessing that has always brought me comfort. I hope that in your time of sorrow it will also bring you some comfort.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May the Lord make his face to shine upon you,
and be gracious to you.
May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you,
and give you peace.
Sincerely,
Greg Golden
