Kind hearted, generous, easygoing, so many ways to describe Pam but she was simply such a nice person to know. When she came to the UK she would always look us all up, slip into easy conversation and have something to give the children.  We will miss the warmth she brought to us all.

I always remember meeting Pam at the Doctor's office when she first came in. She was the nicest person that I have ever met, so genuine, kind and beautiful. I remember when I left the office to move up North and she gave me a hug and told me to never forget her. I haven't and never will. I am so sorry for your loss Greg. My heart and prayers for you and your families.

My heartfelt sympathy to Greg, David and all of the Corey and Lester families.  I feel extremely blessed to have known Pam for the majority of my life, beginning at St. Thomas Episcopal Church to St. Pete High, to Florida State University, and later into our adult years.  Even though we were many miles apart, Pam and Greg would spend an annual evening out for dinner in St. Petersburg with me and my husband Mark. We will miss her smile, sense of humor, and all the love she shared with her family, friends, and many animals.  
Love and prayers, Barbara Jaicks Atkins

Pam’s preserves and jellies!!!! Yummy!
And especially her love of cats.  And her patience and care when preparing my family with her insight  and wisdom regarding the road to memory care of loved ones! Thank you so much Pam❤️

Miss you…

I think she was part dog because you couldn’t keep her away from them. Love and miss you Pam.



Pam, my bestie and roomie from our Cottey College Days. My heart goes out to the Corey family, here and abroad, and all those who were fortunate enough to know her and love her!  Your smile, laughter, and love for animals and people will stay in our memories forever!
Love, Julie

Pam,
of all the American imports we have here in Britain (Friends, McDonalds, SUVs Jon Bon Jovi, West Side Story) You were outstandingly the best.
We enjoyed your every visit immensely and luckily for us you were able to visit us often, having a special relationship with my mother, your Aunt Pam. Sharing a name you had the same love of family and of the rich tapestry that, from our roots, brings us all together. I was always amazed and maybe a little embarrassed at the way you would stop a complete stranger, walking a dog of course and strike up a lengthy conversation largely around little Fido’s shiny coat or how he loved his tummy being tickled. As cousins we often exchanged emails that I found hugely entertaining, I will miss your witty comments and cheery ripostes very much, we send our deepest sympathies to both Corey and Lester families, love to you all Alan

Dear David and family, So sorry for your loss.  Have fond memories 
of her and your family living across 31st Ave in St Petersburg.
Pam was such fun  and happy memories of time spent with her.

David and family,

         Your family . . . Ben, Sylvia, Pam and you . . . are part of our deep St. Thomas' memories.  Your parents moved into Suncoast Manor the same week that my mother did, so I was able to visit with them regularly during those later years. 
We were saddened to learn of Pam's untimely death.  We so enjoyed knowing you both through your teen and young adult years and seeing you occasionally as you visited here.
Please share our sincere condolences with Pam's husband.  You are all in our prayers.
Fondly,
Liz and Chris Stiles

I am so sorry to hear of Pam’s death. I have so many great memories of playing together as kids and I was so happy to reconnect when we were older.  Will cherish those memories.

We were so shocked, and saddened, to hear of Pamela’s passing.
We feel privileged that we were able to get to know her and to spend quality time with her when she visited the UK in 2018.
Our thoughts are with Greg, David and all the Corey family.
With our love to all Pam’s family and friends, her cousins Veronica, Sarah and Deborah (her ‘lost’ Auntie Betty’s girls) xx 


I met Pam when she was working as a sales rep for LabCorp. She would come in the warehouse where I worked to pick up supplies for her clients. She was always so nice. She even came in a couple of times to help me fill orders. Though I haven't seen her since she left, I often thought about her kindness to me during those times and wondered how she was doing. I am so sorry for your loss.

Pam was such a bright light in our book club! I will always remember her as the spunky, hilarious woman who helped welcome me to the Glencoe Street gang. She told some incredible stories and always kept our discussions so lively! She will be greatly missed. 

I was so sorry to hear the news of Pam's passing.  I was next door neighbors to the Lester's for 13 years (2005-2018).  She came with me to pick up one of my dogs and was always a friendly face that we all looked forward to seeing.  She would often surprise my dogs with new toys and treats.  She had such a happy demeanor and full life.  A great neighbor and an  even better person.  Rest in peace.  

Pam was such a wonderful neighbor. Our thoughts and prayers are with Greg and family after her tragic passing. Bless her soul!

I was very saddened to hear the news of Pam's passing.  She was always very nice and helpful at Labcorp.   RIP Pam.  My condolences to the family.
