Pam Deitschel Memorial Grant
In 2026, the Forever 49 Foundation began awarding one-time, discretionary grants toward tuition to worthy students in honor of Pam Deitschel, a good friend of the foundation who passed away in 2025 after a valiant fight against breast cancer.
About Pam
With a bright smile that could light up the room, Pam brought joy, laughter and warmth to everyone around her. She loved being surrounded by her family and friends, whether it was a day at the beach, watching her children’s numerous sporting events, a backyard gathering or cheering loudly for her beloved Cincinnati Bengals (and Joe Burrow).
Pam’s infectious laugh and kind heart made her a source of comfort and fun. She had a special way of making people feel seen, heard and loved. Her presence will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
