Honoring the Life and Legacy of
Pamela Rae Revier
Obituary
Pamela Rae Revier of Litchfield Park, Arizona, passed away on Thursday, April 20th, 2023 at 2:21am. She was born on January 8th, 1953 to Roland Louis Revier and Emma L. Chandler in St. Paul, Minnesota. She was 70 years old.
While simple words don’t do her justice, Pamela was a feisty, stubborn, intelligent, loving, kind and compassionate woman with a great sense of humor. She was a loving mom who was always there when her kids needed her and supported her family in any way needed. She was an amazing friend to many and she was always filled with mirth and laughter. She loved being at the Colorado Renaissance Festival, cutting a swath with the ticket wenches, and enjoyed going to sports games with her son Anthony and dear friend Susan. She loved coffee dates with another dear friend, Brynn. She also loved the wonderfully chaotic energy of another chosen family member, Jude. When she would go up north to work on her property in Brook Park, MN, she would often sit around the table at Mark and Deb’s house sharing stories and cracking jokes. Her weekend mornings were usually spent having breakfast with her daughter Chrissy.
As part of a memorial for her, Ladyships were acquired in both Scotland and Ireland, which include small plots of land. A portion of her ashes will be spread at these two sites to honor her deeply felt connection to her ancestral lands. She will have the titles Lady Pamela Rae Revier of Blairadam, Fife, Scotland and Lady Pamela Rae Revier of Ardmore, Northern Ireland.
Pamela Rae Revier is survived by her children, Anthony Chapman and his wife Lana of Tallinn, Estonia, and Lady Christina Marie Chapman of Litchfield Park, AZ; her sister Evelyn Janssen of Minnesota and her adult children; her brother, Allen Revier, and his wife Linda of New Duluth, Minnesota; her sister Debra Vanthof, and niece Susi Adams; and her niece and goddaughter Rebecca Dawn Marie.
Chosen family members are many: Susan P. and kids, Brynn, Jude T. and daughters, Cheryl J. and family, son of the heart Laurence Hayes, daughter of the heart Tanya Farreras, son of the heart Michael Nielsen, Elena, Holly, and Melissa R. Family of the heart include Mark and Deb Kitchenmaster of Brook Park, MN, and all of the Colorado Ticket Wenches.

Please Consider Donating To Cover Funeral Costs
From Tanya Farreras: Pam was my adopted mom here in the U.S. whom I met over 12 years ago at Arapahoe’s Race Track in Colorado. Both she & her daughter Chrissy have been close to my heart ever since. Mom passed away after battling cancer for years and I cannot even fathom what it is to be like in Chrissy’s shoes right now. Between the heartache, the emotional & physical tolls, the endless medical battles… I know mom has touched so many people! The only solace I have is that now she is resting in total peace & health. I am asking you all to please (financially) help in any possible way. All proceeds will be used towards the online memorial as well as all the unpaid medical bills preceeding mom’s passing.
In both my name, Chrissy’s & her brothers, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your help & support.
RIP gone but will never be forgotten
I will miss her <3
What can I say? Pam was literally mom, THE mom my own mother didn’t have the ovaries to be, not even to this day, which is very harsh to say but the truth. Talk about honesty said in love when she saw you were screwing up, or about to. She never negated or invalidated your feelings rather just asked very deep questions that sometimes lead to an “aha!” moment. I love how free-willed she was, a true “wench” of the Renaissance Festival, and yet such a kind & loving spirit. I was devastated to hear how cancer hit & have a hard time not feeling guilty for not trying harder to be there for you, Chrissy, to help out despite having my own issues with my ex-husband & young daughter. Mom was an amazing soul and rest assured she will always be remain in my heart.
Pamela and I reconnected later in life like she did with Bear. We were able to a road trip together to Ely, Minnesota to visit a coiple of our classmates. We had alot of fun on that trip. She had a beautiful soul. Will miss you Pamela!
May she shine brightly in everyone’s memory!
This is us at our high school 50th reunion.
Pamela and I were high school clasamates, and she was part of our group that hung out together. We stayed in communication for years. When our class was planning a 40th reunion after years of not having one, Pam returned to Minnesota, and together we went to the planning get togethers. It was a lot of fun reconnecting, not only for the two of us, but for seeing old friends and classmates. We stayed in contact and enjoyed doing some things together. She once again sat at our groups table at our 50th reunion. As her cancer took over, she moved west, and shortly after, she passed on…… I want to thank her daughter for keeping me up to speed on Pam, as she got to the point of not being able to communicate with me. It is with a heavy heart I say, “may she rest in eternal peace”.
