Longtime Deer Trail, Colorado resident Pamela Jean Stoumbaugh passed away peacefully at her home on September 5, 2017 Pam was born on February 9, 1948 in Hugo, Colorado to Harry Edgar and Anna Grace (Hiatt) Lofdahl.

She wore many hats over the years; horsewoman, farmer, rancher, bartender, cashier, water aerobics instructor, mail carrier and her most treasured roles of daughter, sister, wife, mother, aunt, grandmother and friend. Pam was a go-getter, a spitfire, filled with a passion for life with her loved ones so evident in her beautiful smile and contagious laugh. Not only was she blessed with wonderful siblings, but she was also blessed with several like-minded women she was proud to call her dear friends. Pam was very active in helping with youth activities when her children were growing up and was a devoted fan of her grandchildren, often frequenting the stands at the Deer Trail School. She also loved being “Grandma Pam” to many of her grandchildren’s friends throughout the years.
