Words cannot express how I feel today, cause we lost a wonderful woman who touched so many lives. I may not have seen much of my brother Terry or sister Pam, but they were always in my thoughts and my heart. We lost a wonderful woman but gained an angel in heaven to watch over us all. So when you think of Pam or remember something about her, just know she will always be with you in spirit rooting you on in whatever life throws at you. I pray every night that you my brother, Terry, newphews Paul and Scott that somehow the pain will ease up at some point in time. If you ever need to talk, I will always be here. So keep your chins up cuz that is what Pam would want. God Bless you all. I love you very much.

Terry, and the Thompson family and friends, I wish there were spoken words or actions I could take to ease the weight of the sorrow you're feeling right now. Know that within each other, together, the strength to get through this darkness will combine to help you weather this sadness. Lean on each other, hug each other, and the memory of Pamela's love will get you through.

I have fought the feelings
And emotions inside
That fills and empties me,
Like a fast rolling tide
There are moments of pain
Of sorrow and hate
Leaving me to ponder.
Many hours of late
I love you honey.
It's your presence I miss.
And I terribly long
For that one last kiss
But the greatest pain of all
That hurts me so deep,
Is after giving you my love
I can't have yours to keep
To have you by my side
Always longing for more,
And have you feel the same,
To mutually adore
You see my love; I have given you my heart
And revealed the depths of my soul
And now I am left feeling hopelessly empty,
Paying this immeasurable toll.
It's selfish I know
to feel this way
But it's how I'll feel now,
each and every day
Always hoping and praying
For the next time we meet
For you to allow me, once again
To feel complete
And rest assured
I WILL see you again
For it's not a question of if
But a question of when.
And when that time comes
I'll be in total bliss
For no longer will I wait
For that one last kiss.
