Jo Henry remembers one moment from childhood that taught her everything she needed to know about her mother.
“We were in Tuesday Morning in Garland and this lady commented on my mother’s pearls,” Jo recalled. “And my mom just gave them to her.”
Jo said that’s a perfect description of who Pamela Evans is.
Pamela dropped out of school at a young age to help care for her siblings and cousins, her daughter said.
And through the years, she’s opened her home to people who had nowhere else to go.
“To total strangers,” Jo said. “And not asking for anything [in return] when she didn’t have anything herself.”
