Pam is the newest member of our Board of Directors. Pam first came to Saint Francis to adopt a cat, and shortly thereafter, she became a volunteer. Pam volunteers several times a week and has become focused on helping to care for the cats. She doesn’t mind cleaning cages or mopping floors, and particularly loves getting the kittens and adult cats socialized to help prepare them for adoption.

Originally from California, Pam moved to Southern Illinois in 2023 with her husband, Jon, one dog, and two cats. Pam is pictured with their English Lab, Bentley, who is an 8-year-old perennial puppy.

Pam is retired after working in Human Resources Management for 30 years in California’s Silicon Valley. When not volunteering at Saint Francis, she enjoys spending time in her garden.
