Pjam was an inspiration to me. She loved what she did and showed she cared and encouraged us quilters by example. The memory of her means a lot to us.

We were shocked to hear of Pjam's passing. People had seen her on Saturday and she had done a presentation at the Quilters' Guild on the previous Tuesday. She had accepted the chair position for the next quilt show. We will miss her enthusiasm and energy.
My sincere sympathies to the family of this amazing woman. Her energy and quilting skills amazed me. I did not know her well, but I will miss her.
I was saddened to hear of Pjam's passing. I didn't know her well, as I'm a recent member of the Lethbridge Centennial Quilt Guild, but I could see her passion for this craft. She also had a wonderfully warm and joyous presence. She will be missed by us in the guild. My most sincere prayers and condolences to your family.
We were so saddened with the news of Pjam's sudden passing. She was a most generous, caring and loving person, and was so proud of her children and grandchildren. She always went above and beyond helping my kids, as did by your entire family. We can't imagine the heartbreak you are all feeling right now, but please know we are all thinking of you.
