It is with great sorrow that we share Pam Connolly was recently called to her Heavenly Home. A devoted daughter, sister, cousin, friend, wife, mother, and grandmother passed peacefully and will be greatly missed. Born and raised in New Orleans, Pam graduated from Ursuline Academy and attended LSUNO. She married and moved to her new home of Baton Rouge, where she raised her family, meticulously tended to her home, and forged many new friendships, in addition those from her hometown, which she held dear. 

Pam's beauty both inside and out was exceeded by her incredible devotion to her family and attending to their every need. While working for many years with La Women's Healthcare Assoc. Pam (an incredible cook) made time to prepare amazing homemade meals, help her children with detailed school projects, and their homework for several hours every evening, and passionately pursuing numerous do it yourself projects with her house and gardens. 

She was preceded in death by her parents, Earl and Rita Mumphrey Wilde, and her beloved husband of 53 years, John "Jack" Connolly. She is survived by her brothers, Jim Wilde (Sarah), Terry Wilde (Anne), and Craig Wilde (Pat), her dear cousin Maria Campeaux, and her children, Brian Connolly (Kelly) and Jennifer Courreges (Doug), and her grandchildren, Harrison and Clippen Connolly and Sophie and Jaxson Courreges, as well as many family and friends. 

Pam was also committed to her faith and her adopted Church and Parish of Our Lady of Mercy.
