Pamela Scarantino Obituary

Pamela Diane White Scarantino, 52, of Fredericksburg, died peacefully Tuesday, May 2, 2006. She departed this world in the comfort of her home surrounded by loving family, friends, and beloved pets. In June 1998, Pam was diagnosed with breast cancer and from the beginning, Pam's spirit and courage made her an inspiration to all. Pam was raised in Poquoson and graduated from Poquoson High School in 1972. Mrs. Scarantino was preceded in death by a son, Clayton Thomas Moore. Survivors include her loving husband, Pat Scarantino; two daughters, Cameron Moore and Cassandra Moore Oliver; a son-in-law, Jaden Oliver; her father, Earnie White and wife, Margie White, of Poquoson; her mother, Shirley Hackett and husband, Robert Hackett, of The Villages, Florida; two sisters, Karen Brauer of Hampton and Teresa Janik of Newport News; a brother, Kevin White of Raleigh, North Carolina; four nieces; two nephews; one grand-nephew and many loving friends. A memorial service was held May 5, at Found and Sons, Fredericksburg. Memorial contributions may be made to Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, c/o Cassandra Oliver and Cameron Moore, 806-A William Street, Fredericksburg, Virginia 22401. Pam passed from this world with the same amount of vitality and love for life as she had before her diagnosis. Her wit and sense of humor was prevalent to the end and she remains a comfort to those around her. She will never be forgotten.

My parents and I are so sorry to hear about Pam. Pam was our next door neighbor when I was a small child. I have many happy memories of spending time with Pam, Karen, Teresa and Kevin. I especially remember the excitement when Pam was crowned Miss PHS. She was a very special person and we will miss her.
