Pam was a graduate of Winnfield High School and attained her Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from Louisiana Tech University.

Pam had a true love for her profession and taught Kindergarten in both public and private school systems for 37 years and mentored many other teachers entering the profession. Always willing to participate and contribute, Pam volunteered as a Cub Scout Den Mother/Girl Scout Troup leader, Choir & Handbell Choirs and United Methodist Women at First United Methodist Church. She also offered her time to countless other school, church and community projects. Her greatest love, however, was her family and her true passion was hosting family gatherings and reunions. Loving mother, devoted wife and faithful servant of the Lord, she was an inspiring presence in the lives of those privileged to know her.
She was preceded in death by her parents Kelly and Ernestine Peterson, one brother Kerry M. Peterson and her son Brian Thomas Baldwin.
