Support Pam Smith After Tragic Loss

Dearest Family and Friends, this is Pam Smith. You may know that my son, Adam, passed away 3 weeks ago suddenly and heartbreakingly. Adam had planned to move here to Greensboro next month to help me through knee replacement surgery and to share expenses of the 2 bdrm. Apt. I rented for us. His lovely partner, Kasey, hoped to possibly join us come winter, with her little dog Louie who Adam also loved so much.

Sometimes when it rains, it truly pours. Not only did I lose my incredible younger Son but then on Friday, July 12th, I was LAID OFF ( with 4 other wonderful teachers). I now face life without Adam but may lose my place to live. Only the kindness and saving help of Camilla Forcum, my dear friend, saved me from possible eviction. (My last monthly electric bill was over $300 and this is a small apt!)

I have prayed over this humiliating situation I find myself in. Only our Lord Jesus Christ has sustained me and gotten me out of bed in the mornings. He is my shield and my salvation. And the love of my family; my inspiring older son, Taylor and his sweet wife, Melissa, and my grandson Abram has been so loving and supportive. My brothers and sisters AND Adam's Dad, Steve, his wonderful family and my extended family are just awesome. Instead of hitting up any of mine or Adam's family and friends individually (and uncomfortably) this seemed an answer the Lord offered me.

If folks can help, thank you so much. I surely understand if not. If any of you would share my GoFundMe page, thank you again. Adam's favorite verse, that carried him through the last few months, has been

Phil. 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." I know this is true and I'm claiming it. But sometimes we need people too and their help. Thank you for all of your prayers as well. Much love and blessings to all of you. Pam
