Pamela S. Crawford

On February 4th, 2007 the world lost an amazing woman to pancreatic cancer. Pamela Crawford fought a 7 month courageous battle against this horrible cancer and her strength and determination amazed all that surrounded her. Wanting nothing more than to live, she fought on with the hope and faith that she would beat it and what a fight she gave.

Ms. Crawford was born and raised in Crystal, Maine where she graduated in 1974 from Katahdin High. After graduation she married Charlie Crawford and moved to New Brunswick, Canada where they started their family. During their 18 years in Canada, Pamela raised three children in a home full of love and laughter and created many memories that we all hold so dear. In 1992 the family moved to Candia, NH.

Ms. Crawford always put her family first. They were her pride and joy and she made sure they always knew it. Her second love was travel. She was able to take a trip of a lifetime to Poland. She was always dreaming of where her next journey would take her. For Pamela, there was nothing better than taking a drive and sitting on the beach listening to ocean waves crash along the shore. She was known for always having a beach chair in her trunk, heading to the ocean, and making late night calls to her best friend Pat Lenz across the way in Canada.

Pamela will be deeply missed by her daughter, Dawn Marie and husband Ray Scott; sons, Charlie James Crawford and Jill Demers, and Terry Lee Crawford; her best friend, Pat Lenz; her soul mate Charles Crawford; and her two treasured grand-babies, Kyley Ann Crawford and Trevor Joseph Scott. Pamela also leaves behind her mother, Betty West; four sisters, Marie, Susan, Debbie Jean and Dianne; one brother, Mark and their families. Pamela was predeceased by her father Charles West. She will also be missed by many extended family members.

We will all deeply miss our beloved Pam. The world lost an amazing woman but we all gained the most beautiful angel. We love you and will see you in the stars tonight.
