From classmate Lowell Tuttle --

I just received a text from Rusty Shields that Pamela Rodreick has passed away.   I knew she had recently had a bout with cancer, but thought it was in remission...

She was  a long time friend of mine and Mike West and Rusty.  

She became a chemist, worked with Frito Lay...became a teacher...and was an author of several children's books that were fairly well touted.
