Pamela Pierre’s Obituary from the Star Tribune:
Pierre, Pamela (Smith) Pierre, Jamie.   Unexpectedly on December 1, 2011 at age 65, Pamela died grieving the equally sudden death of her son Jamie in an avalanche in Utah just 17 days before. Her grief, as is ours, was surrounded by her strong hope in God. Friend to many, a good listener for all who needed comfort, encouragement and counsel, she welcomed everyone equally to her table for life conversation, laughter and joy. She enjoyed music, was a voracious reader, researcher and Internet traveler, and therefore knowledgeable on many subjects, never lacking for strong opinions. Most of all, she was a woman who loved her family and friends. Pamela prayed powerfully and unceasingly, and put her Hope in the resurrection through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Preceded in death by her father, Dr. Fred Smith; grandson, Philippe; and son, Jamie (Amee). Pamela is survived by Gerard, husband of 43 years; children, Chris (Jen), Ben, Sarah (Alex) Ortega, Naomi, Jon (Jana), Andrew, and Michael; mother, Katherine (Smith) Andren; siblings, Linda (Wayne) Gustafson, Jayne (Daniel) Taylor, and Jim Smith (Christine); 11 grandchildren, many nieces, nephews, and relatives, as well as friends worldwide. A Celebration of Life for Pam and her son Jamie will be held on Saturday, Dec. 17th, 11:00 AM at Westwood Community Church, 3121 Westwood Drive, Excelsior, 55331 (Bright colored clothing encouraged). In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to Church of the Cross: Benevolence Fund, 201 9th Ave. North, Hopkins, MN 55343.
