.230 Pam Summey

It was always a delight to work with Pam when I was at the museum. Seeing her down a hallway or when I walked in the lounge would make me smile and breathe a bit easier — I knew things were under control when Pam was there. From the moment I started, she welcomed me in and was flexible, patient, and always willing to help in whatever way she could.

One of my favorite parts about Pam is how honest she is. I always knew the truth about each situation and what to expect because she is both straightforward and compassionate with her approach. She notices the smallest details and no job, no matter how small or tedious, is beneath her. Whenever we worked together on a concert or event, I loved catching up with her and sharing a laugh. She’s a true hoot and pleasure to be around, and I’m grateful to have learned from her work ethic and kind presence.

Pam, thank you for being so sweet and supportive of me. Thank you for your inspiring diligence and attention to detail. Thank you for the hard work that you do and for bringing such amazing artists, artwork, and music to the museum and our lives. Thank you for always making me laugh and for being so kind. Thank you, Pam, for being you.
