Pamela Lee Smith

Pamela Lee Smith, a loving mother, devoted homemaker, and cherished member of her community, passed away on August 6, 2024, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Born on August 27, 1953, Pamela was a beacon of warmth and kindness, her spirit touching the lives of all who knew her.

Pamela attended Southport High School, where she graduated in 1972. Throughout her life, she embraced her dual roles as a mother and homemaker, dedicating herself wholeheartedly to her family. Her passion extended beyond her home; she also served as the Concession Manager at sporting events, bringing joy and a sense of community to all who encountered her.

Family was of paramount importance to Pamela. She and her beloved spouse, Robert Larry Smith, shared a profound bond, marrying on August 28, 1970, at the Bluff Road Methodist Church. Together, they created a nurturing environment that was filled with love and support. Pamela treasured her children, Michele Pitcock, Robert "Bobby" Smith II, and Heather Smith, and reveled in the moments spent with them, pouring her heart into each family gathering.

Pamela delighted in being a grandmother to Carl Pitcock, Brent Pitcock, Virginia Smith, Mitchell Smith, Joseph Smith, Renee Diaz, and Erica Smith. The laughter and love shared with her grandchildren brought her immense joy. Her legacy continued with her great-grandchildren, Carl Pitcock, Kyle Pitcock, Jonathon Denton, Vera Denton, Harliee Smith, Vera Lee Smith, and Piper Smith, who were fortunate to experience her generous spirit and loving presence.

Pamela held a love for music and film that painted her life with color. A true movie and music buff, she enjoyed the melodic tunes of The Beatles, John Denver, and Michael Bolton. These passions echoed in her daily life, often shared with family during evenings spent together.

Pamela was preceded in death by her parents, Richard and Betty "Connie" Burk Sr., her daughter, Connie D. Smith, and her grandchildren, Jonathon Eldridge and Amber Smith. Their memories remained etched in her heart, and she cherished the time spent with them.

As we remember Pamela Lee Smith, we celebrate a life rich in love, laughter, and devotion. Her gentle smile, nurturing spirit, and unwavering support will be profoundly missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. In every cherished memory and every note of her favorite songs, her spirit will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of those she loved.
