Pamela “Pam” Ruth Ringheimer, known for her resilience and loving heart, passed away Feb. 26, 2026 at the age of 63 in Sweet Home, surrounded by her family.
Pam, the youngest of 10 children, was born Aug. 20, 1962 in El Cajon, Calif.,to Jeanette (Altringer) and Alton Walvatne.
Pam’s life reflected her many talents and incredible strength. She was a gymnast, softball player, model, truck driver, and worked for different companies including Hewlett Packard, Cox Cable, Cirtek, and eventually the Sweet Home Forest Service where she met and married her husband Ronald Ringheimer in 1991.
Together they raised two sons, who will forever be grateful for her unconditional love and support. In 1999, Pam defied all odds and survived after experiencing a brain aneurysm. She enjoyed painting, music, volunteering at her children’s schools, and of course, chocolate!
Pam’s greatest joy came from her family.
