Obituary of Pamela Mary Benkert

Pam passed on to a place where she has no more pain and suffering. She fought a very long courageous & sometimes cowardly battle with Multiple Sclerosis. Pam was the daughter of George and Frances (Novotny) Kleinhenz of Parma, Ohio. Pam leaves behind the love of her life, Nick; her son, Christopher (Michelle); granddaughter Samantha; her daughter, Jessica (Brandon); granddaughters, Evelyn and Blythe; brother, Carl Kleinhenz; sister, Rita Evanich, both of Ohio; and her father. She loved her Rescue Cats, enjoyed her gardens, and was an avid gardener for 35 years before her diagnosis. She also took great pride in decorating and remodeling her home before she became ill. Pam found joy in the simple things in life. Respecting Pam’s wishes, cremation has taken place and no services are planned at this time. Miss Me But Let Me Go When I come to the end of the road And the sun has set for me I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little but not too long And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared, Miss me but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take And each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, A step on the road to home. Miss Me But Let me Go!
