She graduated from Grand County High School and attended Mesa State College. As a child she was her daddy's little girl and soon learned that he could never tell her no, so the other kids would always have her "ask" because then the answer would always be YES! Pamela learned to ride before she could walk and she loved her horses, cowboying and just being able to grow up on the ranch. Pamela enjoyed her time spent barrel racing. She made many life long friends there, including many people in the advertising business such as the Marlboro Cowboys.

Pamela married Martin D. Seely on November 19, 1991 and they have two sons, Brennon Dean and Trenton Carl. She and her family helped Pamela's mother and stepfather Lanny Thomas work the Valley Livestock Auction.

She loved spending time with her family and so enjoyed all their accomplishments such as Brennon's basketball and roping, and Trenton's baseball and basketball. She was always giving of her time at the schools, the rodeos or within the community. She always had a house full of her sons friends and loved every minute of it. Pamela also enjoyed helping John Raff in his garden.

She is survived by her husband, sons and her daughter/dog Metoo, her mother Glenna Thomas, a brother Jerry (Heather) White and her sisters Cricket (Kent) Green and Colleen (Gregg) Tibbetts, a stepbrother Danny (Jeanine) Thomas and will be missed by her nieces and nephews.
