She graduated from Siena Heights University on May 4, 2008 with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration. Pam was employed with Novak Engineering, State of Michigan Department of Human Services, the State Prison of Southern Michigan, and most recently with Jackson Intermediate School District. Pam was blessed with two children, who in turn blessed her with grandchildren and great grandchildren. In her youth, Pam attended Lane Memorial C.M.E Church. Later in life she rededicated her life to the LORD and united with Community A.M.E. Church. She later joined Southside Church under the pastorate of Rev. Jeffery Lang. She remained a faithful member of Southside until her passing. Pam loved her Jackson community.
