Many of you probably know Pamela Hoke from the schools, from Project Nature Connect, or simply from her paintings and the gallery she had for a time down by the ferry landing.
She’s a PhD Candidate for Applied Ecopsychology (or Organic Psychology, if you prefer) through Akamai University and Project Nature Connect, with Mike Cohen (and she should be receiving her Ph. D. very soon). This past year, she’s been a Substitute Teacher at Friday Harbor Middle School and High School, a FHHS Wrestling Team Volunteer and is currently the Marketing Committee Chairperson for the San Juan Island Grange. Though her Nature Connection gallery residency at 85 Front Street came to an end, she’s continued to draw and paint, and has much of her work online and available at www.PamelaHoke.com.
And now sadly, she is battling breast cancer.
An online fundraising and information site has been set up for her at GiveForward.com, where you can offer support financially, share her site on social media, keep up on how things are progressing and share stories and photos to help enhance her fundraiser. In addition to that, she and her husband Tim have set up a blog – SoWeHaveCancer.org – where they both can write, reflect, and read & share comments from friends & neighbors to help sort it all out…

Thank you, Tim, for helping us get the word out! And, yes, this is one of the things that makes living here great AND very special. The out pouring of sympathy and well-wishes from our friends and locals has been amazing. Pam and I are so grateful that we can go through this in a healing place and community like San Juan Island. Thank you to all! Tim H.
