Pam McNear

Update: We will be hosting a celebration of life for her at the Auburn Community Center on 3-24-24 time to be determined still, open to the public. We can’t thank everyone enough for their generosity in the last few weeks in helping us with everything. It has been with your support and your love for her and us that you have allowed us grieve, find some comfort and take care of the final expenses like we have. You all have been amazing to us truly! We look forward to seeing you on March 24th even if you just stop in to say hi. ☺️ I will be making a Facebook event for it and posting it here in the next week with more details.

Mom passed away 2/23/24 early in the morning, peacefully in her sleep. We appreciate all the donations so far. We will leave this open for another week, if anyone else wants to help with any other final expenses. Y’all have blessed us tremendously and we can’t thank you enough.

Hey everyone, I'm Lynda. I'm reaching out to all of you because I truly am in a pickle! My mom, Pam, was recently diagnosed with stage 2 pancreatic cancer. I know, stage 2 doesn't sound too crazy, but it's her pancreas. High probability of death quickly after diagnosis, if left untreated. Because of this, she opted for a surgery that would prolong her life and allow her to do treatments to give her more time. She quit her job(Casey’s) due to the cancer and had the surgery back in December. My mom was the sole provider for her, my dad, and my youngest brother, so it's been hard and they've managed in the meantime. Surgery went as expected, but she had a difficult time bouncing back. Since then, she's been in and out of the hospital, and more recently they've found the cancer in her lymph nodes as well. Naturally, her prognosis isn't looking too good. She is now on Hospice, and we've come to terms with the fact she doesn't have much time left. I debated back and forth on this for a while, but since I'm a single parent household and my mom didn't have any pre-arranged end of life plan in place...it means the money isn't there either to do even the bare minimum. I wouldn't ask if I could do it by myself, so I decided to give this a try to see what our community could do. If you are able to donate, that is amazing and I thank you. If you can't, at least share? I won't judge if you aren't able to contribute, I understand these days are hard times for everyone. Anything helps and I thank you in advance for any donation or share!

Thank you,

The McNear Family
