Pam lived most of her life in Whitley County, but there were a few exceptions over the years. For a bit of time, in 1994, they moved to Noble County. After a few years, they moved back to Whitley County but not for long, as Randy's job relocated them to South Carolina in October of 2015. Pamela finally made her way back to Columbia City on September 17, 2016. The day after her return home, she learned of her cancer diagnosis.

Almost a year later, we are forced to say goodbye. Pam passed away on Friday, July 21, 2017, at Parkview Hospital. As we look to one another to find comfort in our shared memories, we will also make sure to keep her spirit alive in our hearts. We will dearly miss her ability to make us laugh and her honest way of speaking her mind. Pamela will be greatly missed in this lifetime.

Survivors include her husband of 36 years, Randy Wood; children, Deanna Funk, of Warsaw, Melanie (Gary Rodenbeck) Wood, of Columbia City, Kent Wood, of Columbia City and Joshua (Tiffani) Wood, of Fort Wayne; sister, Glenna (Phil) Johnson, of Columbia City; grandchildren, Adam (Ashley Kessinger) Funk, Sarah Funk, Talynn Wood, Madalynn Wood and Lillyen Wood; and three great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents and baby sister, Shirley K. Walter.

Visitation is 2-4 and 6-8 PM Tuesday, July 25, 2017, at DeMoney-Grimes, a Life Story Funeral Home, 600 Countryside Drive, Columbia City. Funeral services will be 10 AM Wednesday, July 26, 2017, at the funeral home with Pastor Paul Dreger officiating. Burial will follow at South Whitley Cemetery.

Memorial gifts may be given in her memory to Palmetto Health Richland Hospital or American Legion Auxiliary. Visit www.demoneygrimes.com to send family condolences or sign the guest register book.

A quote given to her by a friend "The women I love and admire for their strength and grace did not get that way because life worked out. They got that way because life went wrong and they handled it. They handled it a thousand different ways on a thousand different days, but they handled it. Those women are my superheroes." ― Elizabeth Gilbert
