Pamela Kingsbury initially joined SAH in 1981. SAH Executive Director Pauline Saliga said, "Pam was an active member of SAH for decades, attending our annual international conferences taking SAH Study Tours, and even organizing three architectural study tours for SAH with her friend Robert Winter. Their study tours took us to the Heartland of the US—Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas, to Pasadena California to see Arts and Crafts architecture, and to New York to study the work of architect Bertram Goodhue. Pam made many deep friendships at SAH and she will be missed. We send our sincere sympathy to Pam's family and friends."
