Pamela Suzanne Trawick

Pamela Suzanne Trawick, 56, passed away peacefully on Feb. 24 after a brief battle with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. Pamela possessed a joyful spirit, and was known for her warmth, kindness, generosity and fun-loving nature. Pamela was a devoted and loving wife to her husband and best friend, David Trawick. A Christian, Pamela knew she was in God's hands and never doubted His plans for her. Pamela was born Aug. 6, 1960, to Franchelle and James Russell Owen in Russellville, Ark. She grew up in Little Rock, Ark. In her 20s, she moved to Los Angeles, where she met David, with whom she shared a keen interest in travel and books. In 1992, she and David married. They moved to Longmont, Colo., in 1994. Her appreciation for literature and writing led her to earn a bachelor's degree in English from the University of Colorado-Boulder. Later, her sense of service and justice inspired her to become an attorney. She earned a Juris Doctor at the University of Denver, then practiced family law for 10 years in Longmont and Fort Collins, Colo. In 2013, she and David moved to San Jose, where she focused on writing Christian fiction. Pamela's novel, Walking Between the Stones, was published in December 2016. Pamela is survived by her husband as well as two sisters, Rhonda Owen (Michael Foster) of Little Rock, Ark. and Sherri Rost (John) of Sturgis, S.D., and her uncle, Donald Hall of Nimrod, Ark.
