Pamela Lorene Williams Bell

Pamela Lorene Williams Bell passed peacefully at her home, surrounded by friends and family on October 14, 2022.

Pam was born on July 26, 1948, in Kosciusko, MS to Edna Lorene McElroy Williams and Kenneth Cortis Williams. She was the eldest of 2 children. She graduated Kosciusko High School in 1966. In high school she was the business manager of the school paper and participated in many plays and musicals. She also attended MSCW in Columbus, MS where she was a member of the Rogue Club. There she made friendships that lasted for her entire lifetime.

Pam married William Edward Bell on March 18, 1967. Together they owned and operated Timberland Supply Company and Kosciusko Mini Storage for over 35 years. She was involved in the community through charitable and social organizations. She belonged to the 21st Century Club and participated in many garden, supper, bridge and booster clubs. “She was an avid reader (she read 2-3 books a week), excellent cook, gardener, wonderful gift giver, and she had a calm and great business sense,” this is how her closest friends describe her. Her beauty, dazzling wit, loyalty, charitable nature and constant strength will be sorely missed by her friends and family.

Pam was preceded in death by her mother and father. She is survived by her sister, Leisa Terrell (Larry) of Kosciusko. Pam leaves behind her devoted husband of over 55 years, Eddie and her 2 sons Christopher Bell (Christine) and Grant Bell (Allison). She is survived by 6 grandchildren Greyson, Ava and Sophie Bell; Victoria, Jackson and Genevieve Bell.
