Pamela Kay Lee-Sanders

Pam graduated from Eureka High School, Hesston College, and Illinois Central College where she received her nursing degree. For 21 years she worked at Memorial University Medical Center in Savannah, GA, first as a registered nurse and then as the founding Director and Chief Flight Nurse of Lifestar, Inc., the hospital’s air ambulance. This position gave her the opportunity to combine two of her life’s passions, nursing and flying. For a few years she lived in Charleston, SC. There she worked for another air ambulance company, Lifelink and The Medical University of South Carolina. The last 20 years Pam and her family lived in the Phoenix, AZ area. There she continued working in the nursing field in several capacities. At the time of her death was employed by AKOS as a TELEHEALTH RN.

Pam thrived in the nursing profession. She was highly respected by her co-workers, and her kind, calm, compassionate manner touched the lives of her many patients.

Pam was preceded in death by her parents, Dale and Irma Noe, and her former husband Tyrone Lee. She is survived by her children Brandie Michelle Lee, Amber Renee Lee, and her beloved granddaughter Makayla Laighton Rodgers, all of Chandler AZ, and a brother, Bryan Noe (Elaine) of Decatur, GA.

Pam loved being a mother and a grandmother.
