Pamela Page Bell

Pamela (“Pam”) Ann Page Bell was a loving sister, niece, aunt, friend, colleague, and dedicated civil servant who had a passion for learning, teaching, and mentoring others. Pam was always eager to share her knowledge with all who were willing to learn. Pam was always guiding and modeling the proper way to be a woman and citizen. Pam’s life began on December 15, 1962, in Baltimore, Maryland, as the youngest daughter of the late Al F. Page, Sr. and Annie Ruby Page. Pam was educated in the Baltimore Public School system. After graduating from Strayer Business College, she began her career in public service with the Circuit Court of Baltimore City where she dedicated more than 43 years of service to the Juvenile Division, where she worked up until her passing, as an Administrative Assistant for the Magistrates of the Juvenile Division. Her colleagues describe her as a “longstanding and valued member of the Circuit Court, distinguishing herself through her professionalism, institutional knowledge, and unwavering commitment to the mission of the Juvenile Division—strengthening children and families in Baltimore. Her contributions left a lasting impact on the judges, magistrates, staff, and attorneys who had the privilege of working with her.” She later married Cornell Bell, and during their union, she was a caring stepmother to Melissa and Todd. Pam loved music, reading books, and supporting small businesses in her Catonsville neighborhood. To Pam, all things were truly great in 21228. While shopping local was a favorite pastime, she loved nothing more than the comfort of home. Home was truly her refuge, and that’s where she found her respite. From her armchair, she loved ordering gifts and home goods from the Home Shopping Network (HSN) and QVC. She also loved candles, home scents, and homemaking, treasuring the antique Singer sewing machine affectionately passed down from her mother, who she affectionately called “Toots.” Every holiday season, Pam enjoyed family dinners, decking the halls, and the treat of a new Coach tote for work to bring in the New Year. She found comfort in small joys like celebrating the achievements of her nieces and nephews and sharing experiences in intimate conversations with family and friends. Pam was preceded in death by her father, Al Page, Sr.; mother, Annie Page; brothers, Al Page, Jr. and George Cain; and sisters, Jannie (“Neasie”) Page and Barbara Arrington. She leaves to mourn her sisters, Rachel Robinson and Jacqueline Page; nieces, Sharonne R. Bonardi (Jason), Latanya Brooks (George), Laishia (“Shay”) Sharpe; nephews, George Cain, Jr., Joe Arrington, Jr., Melvin D. Pearson, Maurice Pearson (A’Eriel), and Marlon Pearson; one Aunt, Jannie Bowden ("Aunt Mary"); and a host of cousins, and great-nieces and great-nephews. Pam fostered many enduring friendships over her career, like with her decades long friend, Danette Hardy. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and colleagues. Pam's legacy will live forever in the hearts of those who had the honor of knowing her, and her light will never fade.
