Pamela Jean Chrapowicz

EDIT:  The service in Slatington PA is now Sunday September 1st, noon to 3pm at Friedens Fire Company.

Pamela Chrapowicz, 77, of Auburndale, Florida, passed away unexpectedly on August 19, 2024, at Lakeland Regional Medical Center surrounded by her loving family. She was born in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania and was the daughter of Jack and Beverly (DeHaven) Morgan.  

Pam met her husband, Ray, during high school and their love grew stronger during his tour in the Vietnam War. Their love endured for fifty-eight years and they created a loving family with two children, Sandy and Jim. Being a military family of 23 years, they lived in quite a few places and made many friends along the way.

Pam retired with her husband to Auburndale, Florida in 2015 after a long and varied career at HCSC Laundry in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Pam enjoyed traveling, but her heart was always at home with her family. She cherished every moment spent with them, especially when it came to spoiling her grandsons. She enjoyed volunteering as a polling station worker, with CERT, Vietnam Veterans Ladies Auxiliary, and Xi Phi Sorority.

She is preceded in death by her parents and her daughter.

Pam is survived by her husband, Ray; son, Jim (Kristin); grandsons, Ryan and Alex; brother, Jack Morgan; sister, Donna (Thomas) Kmetz; niece, Stacey Golembeski and daughter McKenna; nephew, John (Jessica) Lowe; and many extended family.

Local friends and family are welcome to join in Pam’s Celebration of Life at the Hamptons Community Room in Auburndale, Florida on Friday, August 23, from 2 to 4 pm. Please wear your brightest colors to celebrate.

Friends and family are welcome to join an additional Celebration of Life at Friedens Fire Company in Slatington, Pennsylvania on Sunday September 1st, from 12 to 3 pm.
