Pamela Ann Silveria, at home in Sonoma, in the early hours of Christmas morning of 2008, God wrapped his arms around Pam and took her home to be with him in heaven. Pamela was 69 years old and born in San Francisco on April 14, 1939 and lived her whole life in Sonoma. She attended local schools and owned Pam’s Trucking for 15 years. She was preceded in death by her parents, Leo and Esther Schwartz; George Silveria, her former husband and father of their two daughters; and longtime companion Frank Medeiros.
She is survived by her daughter Kim Silveria and her husband Jon Rusk, and her grandchildren, Craig (Shannon), Kaly and Crystal of Sonoma. She is also survived by her daughter Darlene S. Crossman and her husband Steve Crossman, and grandson Stephen of Fairfield.
Pam was a loving mom and nana to her daughters and grandchildren and we will forever miss and love her.
Dear Mom,
Wow what a Christmas it’s been.
We miss & love you so very much,
But know you’re with dad
And all your loved ones in heaven right now.
It must feel great to be rid of the pain
That hurt you so much.
We thought we had another day
To see you here on earth,
But know God needed you up with him more.
We miss your laugh and smile
But we are glad he took you quietly
In the early morning hours
So you didn’t have to suffer any more.
It must be beautiful there
With everyone else we miss,
But we look so forward to the day
When we join you again
With our perfect new bodies.
We will always be sad
To not call you and talk,
But know how much better you can breath
And now go for a long walk.
We miss you but know
How very lucky heaven is
To have our mom and dad together
To make it a little bit brighter.
God keep her safe
In your arms and hold her tight,
And tell her we will love,
And miss her each and every night.
Mom,
We know you deserve
The very best and even more,
No more pain and suffering now
No more hurt and sorrow.
We will smile when we think
Of the memories we’ve shared,
We will cherish each one of them
And keep you in our hearts every day.
We love you mom and Miss you.
