Pam, we are so heartbroken to lose you. You have been - and will always remain in our hearts as - a huge part of what makes our school so special. Rest in Peace.

Pam, it was an absolute pleasure to know you, always a massive smile on your face and happy to help! You will be so missed.. Rest in Peace.

Pam, I'm so sad to hear the news. You were always such a happy, positive presence at Beaufort/HP - in our RP meetings, having a chat on duty or just in passing, you were always so lovely and kind. You will be very missed.

Pam, you were an amazing colleague but above all an amazing friend. Your support for staff and students was truly inspirational and school will not be the same. Rest in Peace.

With huge sadness I will remember you dressed as the Mad Hatter, a plate of cakes in your hand, and with that huge smile. In sorrow Catherine MG

Dear Mike and Richard My deepest sympathies and you are all very much in our thoughts at this extremely sad time. We will miss Pam not only as a true professional and hard working colleague but also as a real friend who saw the best in everybody and always made us smile and laugh.

I am very sad to hear the news. Pam you were a very kind and caring person who always had a smile on your face. I will remember your generosity. The students will miss you deeply and we will all treasure the memories we have of you. Rest in Peace Pam.

I'm deeply saddened to hear the news. Pam was an amazing person. Extremely kind, funny and caring. Was loved by teachers and students alike. I have thoroughly enjoyed working close with her over the last two years and our funny emails to one another. Pam had lots of wonderful words of wisdom when I started my pastoral journey at HP and I will never forget how much she helped me. She truly is an inspiration. My thoughts go to her family at such a difficult time xx

I count myself lucky to have been able to call Pam a friend. Possibly of the kindest and most caring person I have ever known. Never a bad word to say about anyone and always looking for the good in anyone she met. Always happy to help, smiling and cheerful whatever the circumstances, the ray of sunshine on a gloomy day. She will remain long in the hearts of all of us who had the privilege of knowing her.

Pam was a star in our school. Her fantastic sense of humour, warmth and genuine kindness means she will be sadly missed, but never forgotten. Grateful for all of the smiles and memories. RIP. X

This is definitely not what I thought I would be doing today. Such sad news and so unexpected. You will always be a huge part of the school, we all have such fond memories of you and your antics. I loved supporting in your lessons because you always went out of your way for the children. You’re wicked sense of humour will be sorely missed. My sincerest condolences to your family at this devastating time. RIP Pam

My deepest condolences to the boys and to the rest of the family. It was an absolute privilege to know and work alongside Pam for 20 years. A truly kind, caring and generous soul towards staff as well as students and I shall miss her greatly. Rest in peace, Pam.

I am deeply saddened to hear this news. Pam, your smile and your beautiful personality would always light up a room. Your kindness and fantastic sense of humour will be missed by both staff and students. Rest in Peace.

It is a difficult day for the school community hearing the news about Pam. She was popular, genuine and an excellent teacher. I remember, at a time before I knew her better, she came to school with a bouquet of flowers for me because she knew I’d had a bad day the day before and this really shows the kind and supportive nature she had. My thought are with her family. RIP Pam x

Pam was always supportive and made time to ask me how I was, no matter how her day was going. She was funny, kind and always positive. I really enjoyed my time sharing a tutor group with her and I know the students will miss her dearly. I just want to thank her for all the positive memories. My thoughts are with her family at this difficult time.

Pam was a true friend from the moment I walked into Beaufort she made me laugh, whether it be just her fabulous sense of humour or her passing comments in the corridors . She is and will be always remembered in school as the mummy of the department, no matter what was going on she would listen and not make judgement. I hope wherever you are there is a good glass of wine. Rest in Peace x

Pam was an integral part of our Maths department. A fantastic teacher who took pride in everything she did, her students knew she cared and she went above and beyond for them. Pam overflowed with positivity, kindness and laughter, she went out of her way to look out for all of us in the team. Her absence will be keenly felt, but her legacy will live on. My prayers are with her two sons, she talked about you both with such joy and love and always a huge smile, I am deeply sorry for your loss xx

Pam always had a smile for everyone and was so giving of her time. We would always know when Comic Relief or Children in Need was coming up because we would receive an email asking for donations for the raffle. Pam's approach to this, that tickets didn't cost much to enable all pupils to take part, summed up her kindness and generous spirit. The joy Pam created in school will be missed. Rest in Peace.

Pam you were always such a positive presence around the school - you always thought of others first and you could always be counted on to dress up for charity! We were always bumping into each other outside of school in strange places - even in Cornwall! You touched the lives of a lot of people who will miss you dearly. My thoughts are with your family at this difficult time x

A beautiful soul, who will be missed by so many. Always there with a smile on your face and happy to help or offer guidance. My thoughts are with your family. Rest in peace. Xx

Pam, you were a radiator. You gave out warmth, kindness and generosity, and everyone wanted to be around you. You never had a bad word to say about anyone and I never heard a bad word said about you. Very few special people achieve this. You will be sorely missed.

Rest In Perfect Peace Ms Howes. You will be greatly missedXx

My deepest condolences to Pam's family. My thoughts are very much with you. Pam was my Head of House when I joined Beaufort and it was an absolute pleasure working for her. She always brought a smile to my face and made sure I was getting on OK during my first year. Never a bad word about anything! I will always be indebted to her for her support and sense of humour. A great loss to our community, a much loved member of staff and you will be greatly missed by staff, students and me.

Pam, the friendly,cheerful, generous,whacky,tender hearted lady with a wicked sense of humour and a twinkle in her eye.She had time for everyone, able to see through the hype with a well placed word and always looking out for the underdog, she gathered and protected the vulnerable, she was at breakfast club,on playground duty and where students could seek her out.Their stability in a sometimes unkind world. Her pastoral nature, hard work, her sense of fun and honest disrespect when needed, her priority was always people, she will be missed beyond words.Pam was always the first to join in or initiate fun or to collect for the homeless, or the youngster undergoing cancer treatment. How cruel to have life cut short when there was so much she was looking forward to, a proud mum always and first. Her sunny nature and genuine care will be truly missed. Di Waters.

Pam, you were always there with a kind word or a laugh. Your kindness, generosity and fantastic fancy dress costumes will always be remembered. Thank you all the support and kindness that you showed me and many others. You will be greatly missed. My thoughts are with your family. Rest in peace. X

Incredibly kind, caring and thoughtful. I always appreciated the messages wishing me well and the generous gifts to my daughter. You made me feel welcome when I first started working with you and became a friend. x

Pam, someone who lived out our values day in day out. She will be a huge professional loss but on a personal level I will miss dropping into her classes and seeing her giving 100 for children day in day out. We lost one of our Greenshaw family members yesterday but she will live on in our memories. Love and wishes to her sons.

I’m absolutely heart broken, ms Howes was an absolute laugh also my maths teacher throughout the time I started school. She was loved by all students. My heart goes out for her sons who she loved dearly

Pam is a huge loss to our school community. She brightened every day with her humour and looked after us all. Pam's selfless and caring nature can be characterised by the many charity events that she organised, many of which she dressed up for. I will remember her as wonder woman because she was. Pam was an outstanding pastoral lead, her commitment to the children in her care was inspirational, I will miss working alongside her terribly. My thoughts are with her family.

RIP ms Howes, had you as a teacher a few times over the years. You put up with my crazy attitude towards school and every teacher when I was younger even when you didn’t have to. I wasn’t always in the best of moods but you would never hold it against me in the next lesson. You never gave up on me,had you as my teacher in the last year of education and i can honestly say if it wasn’t for your persistence with me I wouldn’t have passed maths. I was so close to giving up on it in the last year but you pushed me and pushed me to pass. Gone but never forgotten❤️

R.I.P ms howes. You were an amazing maths teacher. 🕊🥺

Pam, we are all devastated and still trying to comprehend what has happened. Your warmth and generosity towards every student and member of staff will be hugely missed. I remember when you had just moved into your new classroom and had gone out to buy some reading books for your students, as you hated the idea that someone didn't have an opportunity to have a book of their own. You always went above and beyond to care for others and show kindness at all times; an attitude which made you an absolute joy to work with. Sending love to your family x

Dear Rich and Mike, I was so sad to hear the news about your mum today. Dear Pam, such a laugh, always caring, and a friend to all. I hope you'll find some comfort in knowing how much Pam was loved and respected by everyone who knew her. Sending you lots of love. xx

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Pam for the past 20 years. She was a fantastic Maths teacher, but we should never forget that she was also once a brilliant TA in the SEN Dept. The care and compassion she showed from the very start were a part of her to the end. My deepest sympathies are with her family, who should be incredibly proud of her.

Ms Howse was such an amazing teacher she would give up her breaks in order to help you understand a maths topic or even just for a chat ! You could talk to her like family ! I’ll never forget how we’d laugh at how I got the answer to a question so wrong ah ! Such a patient kind soul and she will never be forgotten ! Rest in peace angel ❤️💕

I only hope and pray that you are spreading oodles of love, cheer, mischief, hope, fun, happiness, and Pamelaaaaa sprinkles up there in paradise. I’ll never forget our fantastic silliness and times together, both in and out of school. Gosh Pam, we had some laughs! You have, and will always be one of my most genuine friends and I’ll miss you beyond imagination. You’ve left one heck of a legacy behind you Pam, and have changed and enhanced lives of staff and students, sometimes beyond belief. You really were awesome all round. Thank you for being you, and all you did for everyone. Your gorgeous boys must be so incredibly proud to have you as their mum. I know you were beaming with pride and admiration when you spoke of them, and rightly so! Look after them from paradise Pam. Spread your thoroughly well deserved wings, fly high, get some needed rest and then enjoy the peace, and create joy and laughter up there. It comes naturally to you. I’ll never forget you Pam. Heaven's gain is our loss. Sleep tight and God Bless you girl xxx

Such a terrible shock to hear this news here in Kenya. Pam filled the room with love and care and always took the time to be genuinely interested in people's lives. My heart goes out to Mike and Rich, I am so deeply sorry for your loss.

What a massive loss to our maths team, school and community. I will miss Pam massively both in terms of her teaching and her upbeat and positive outlook every day. My thoughts are with her family.

What a loss to the school community and family Pam was an amazing person and teacher who will be sadley missed by us and the students,my thoughts are with the family at this very sad time..shane show pam the way xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxlove to the famiy

Pam was brilliant with the students, supporting them day in, day out. She also supported staff members around the school and helped me massively. I feel privileged to have worked with Pam and my condolences goes out to her family.

I was saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Pam, such a lovely, caring and thoughtful person. I very much enjoyed the time we worked together. We always had such a laugh both in school and out. My thoughts are with Mike and Rich at this very sad time.

Ms Howes was an amazing maths teacher she was the only reason I enjoyed maths. It became one of my favourite lessons due to her, I will miss her very much ❤❤❤

A big personality, a big heart and a big smile. You were everything to everyone Pam – a true Beaufort/HP legend. Who else could have got us all together, even in your passing, with so much love? I hope when the time is right we can celebrate your life. Much love to Rich and Mike at this very sudden and sad time. x

Pammy, Heartbroken and gutted beyond belief. Not only were you an inspirational teacher and proud mum to 'your boys' but you were an amazingly true friend. Always smiling, full of advice, wisdom and support. Full of fun (fancy dress) with a huge, open, charitable heart! The sky at night has gained the brightest star that we, in the day, have lost. Much love my friend, rest in peace x

Dearest Pam, What can be said that hasn’t already been said about you, you were truly awesome. Miss are chats in the B area when you were on lunchtime duty. We did have a laugh and joke., you had an amazing sense of humour. I can remember one day it was pouring down with rain, and you forgot your umbrella. I went into the cleaning cupboard and got you a bin liner to put over your head. We laughed so much as you ran to the maths block with it on. You will be missed by all rip piece my lovely. Xxx

you will be missed by many always wished the best upon us and always made me smile! Rest in peace🥺🕊thoughts are with family❤️xxx

R.I.P to the best maths teacher that existed. Not a day went by when she didn't make someone smile in her lesson. She wasn't just a teacher but a best friend to me, the staff and all the students. She always made. lessons fun like sweety Friday, we would go on computers, she let us talk and mess around a bit and she would join in and laugh along with us. She was an amazing person who always spread her joyful spirit where ever she went. It's so sad to her go but now we will carry her joyfulness along with us and spread it around the school, will do that for her. Rest in peace Pam Howes. You will be missed greatly by all. ❤😭

Pam, your cheerfulness, sense of humour and total devotion to your pupils will be terribly missed by everyone. Always such a warm, kind and lovely person who made a real difference every day to pupils and staff alike. A friend to all, who will be remembered and greatly missed.

My favourite teacher for two years and my tutor for one I’m going to really miss you rest in peace

Pam... you were like Christmas- something, the someone you looked forward to seeing, being and sharing with.You had a unique ability to light up a space and like the Christmas star your rays shone out to guide, cheer and comfort others. Your lovely boys will continue to live out the values you showed. Abiding memories of being your room buddy on the Beaufort 2006 Iceland trip- how we laughed way past bedtime. Wouldn’t have missed you for the world and thank from the bottom of my heart for sharing your journey with me and with all of us. We were blessed.

Pam was by far and away the best TA in the Maths Department and very supportive of both pupils and staff. Very keen to gain new subject knowledge and teaching skills. She was someone who I could totally rely on and I felt we were a real team when working together. Not only a colleague but a friend. Sad news and I am sure she will be missed by all who knew her. Denis

Pam. I had the pleasure of crossing paths with you for 7 years. Loved the laughs we had on our duty days together and putting the world to rights. Loved a chat with you always and your great pearls of wisdom. A massive loss but a great gain for heaven. Much love to your boys and rest of the family. God bless x

Absolutely gutted to have to say goodbye Pam. You were always able to brighten up a day whether it was with a joke or simply a friendly comment. You have touched so many lives, and you will be sorely missed. Rest in Peace

Pam, one of the kindest, funniest woman I have ever met in my life. An inspiration to anyone who crossed paths with her. It was a pleasure to get to know Pam over the past few years. Pam was the queen of fancy dress, whether it be wonder woman, pudsy or a clown. I'll never forget the day I was driving into ASDA after work and heading towards me was a clown with a multi-coloured wig! RIP, you will be greatly missed x

Pam you are going to be so missed. Your wonderful smile and wicked sense of humour made me you one in a million. A fantastic Teacher and wonderful friend. Rest in peace xxx

I am in complete shock and devastation with what has happened. Mrs howes was the best teacher In the school, she helped me through the hard times and the best times. She helped me understand so much and she was just overall just a great teacher.she will be missed by so many students. RIP Mrs howes, fly high 😞😭💞

In the short time I got to meet you it was clear how incredibly highly people valued you as a colleague and friend. I'm so sad for those who had the pleasure to have you in their life, a huge loss for us all! You will be so missed! x

When I plant the garden and feed the birds I think of Pam and smile; that won’t change. I am so sad for her boys and all of us who were blessed to have her as a friend. She was always a real teacher and her absence teaches me the value of everyone else we are fortunate to have in our lives. Thank you Pam for everything

Ms howes, I had you for 2years you were a amazing teacher even when I played up! I will always remember you in your bright yellow jacket patrolling the field. Always asked me if I was ok and always listened to me! Thank you again you will be sadly missed my thoughts go out to your family❤️

Rest in peace! You were an amazing teacher Mrs Howes thank you for everything you’ve done to make my school journey easier. My thoughts go out to your family at this sad time.

I just wanted to pass on my huge thanks to every single one of you that have helped illustrate a perfect reflection of my kind hearted, lovely, caring, hard working, best fancy dress, supportive, smiley and beautiful Mum. I have always said to my Mum, she never really understood how many lives she changes on a daily basis whether that it is at School or outside of school. I've always told her how amazing she is in her Career, how many kids she's helped not with just getting their grades but their private lives also. She always just thought she was "doing her job" but I always said you're going beyond that. My Mum was my Guru. She was my Best Friend - she was truly an Angel in disguise, and now she is a true Angel in the Skies with all the other Angels that she held so dear to her heart. Rich and I are just so heartbroken. We will miss you so much Mum. When your first Grandchild is born in July, I will teach him the ways you have to others, and I will teach him about you. I hope you're reading all of these Beautiful messages from people. You were truly loved, by everyone. I love you. Goodbye. x x x

Shocked and saddened to hear the news about Pam. One of the lovliest people you would ever meet. My thoughts are with her family especially her boys. God Bless Pam.💕

Mike and Rich, you were treasured by your mum, she talked about you often with such pride! My deepest sympathy to you both and I am praying that you would find peace and comfort at this time of heartbreak. We share in your great sadness. Pam lived big everyday for the good of those around her, impacting thousands of lives. Such a happy, fun, kindhearted lady with a big friendly smile and contagious enthusiasm. Hard working and determined to make a difference for good in her teaching, pastoral care and fund raising. Always calm, patient, caring and encouraging. The last time I spoke with Pam she had tears rolling for her hard working students who were devastated about the exams news. Our last email saying how she was 'missing the kids dreadfully' and asking about the welfare of individuals. A truly inspirational lady!

My condolences to the family RIP

"All things bright and beautiful" that was our friend Pam. She gave so much more than she took in this world and our lives are more the richer for knowing her. She was one of the few people who always asked how you were and then listened to the answer,not moving on until she knew you were ok. In my own sickness and health she was always there with a witty text or a cheeky comment to lighten my day,it just came naturally to her The students adored her and the word fun and caring is repeated over and over again in their comments. Lets all try and be a bit more like Pam and show the world we care,especially for the disadvantaged ones who she cared for so much. My thoughts are with Mike and Rich," her boys",she would have been an amazing Granny. Love to you both xxxx

These tributes describe the life of a great teacher and a great person. As a Greenshaw trustee I never had the chance to meet Pam Howes, but it is clear Just what the Greenshaw family has lost with her passing.

Pam you were a truly wonderful colleague and an inspiration to so many. You always saw the best in the most challenging students and never gave up on anyone. Your light and laughter was everywhere around the school. Your enthusiasm shone through even the darkest days. You will be sadly missed by all who had the privilege to know you. God bless.

Ms Howes will be dearly missed. She was a fantastic teacher and role model to us, it won’t be the same without her at HP. RIP❤️

Pam was a truly wonderful lady and such a great colleague always looking to help everyone, most of the time before they asked. She was always there when you needed her with her great smile and boundless enthusiasm for the development of both students and staff. So very sad that this wonderful life has been cut so short. Everyone will miss you!

Pam, you were such a shining light in all of our lives, effortlessly bringing joy and a smile to us all. You were the kindest, most lovely of women to have ever met. Getting to know you was truly special. Every time I would talk to you, it was massively special, and you possessed a positive spark difficult to replicate; Pam was a truly lovely woman. Very sad to hear the news of your passing, my condolences to the family at this hardest of times. Your generosity and charitable spirit was second-to-none. You never hesitated to help anyone that would come to you, who needed it. I will be forever grateful for the happy memories shared with you, and the immense joy you brought to everything you did. The world has lost a truly special woman

I am so very sorry to hear this sad news about Pam. My sincere condolences to her lovely sons and her family. It was a pleasure to have known Pam all the years she has worked at the school. A hardworking, kind and caring person with a lovely sense of humour. I won't forget that lovely smile. God bless.

Thinking of Mike and Rich and all your family today as you say farewell to dearest Pam. Fond memories of such a lovely colleague and friend. God bless.
