  1. Penny always treated me just like I was her son and not her “son in law”. I loved her very much and will miss her each day for the rest of my. My heart aches for David, Christy, and my children.

  2. David, Christy and family: I am so so sorry to hear of your loss (Penny). We worked together for many years and really had some good times. She will definitely be missed! Love: Mary Helen Pendleton.

  3. I’m so sorry that Penny has left us. She was my very first very best friend, when we were preschoolers living 1 house & George St apart on the lower end of Sycamore St. One of my parents or her mother Ann or Aunt Marie (pretty sure of their names) would have to watch as we crossed George St to go from one house to the other. We played together almost all the time. Such good, good memories.

  4. Penny was one of my best friends. I went to the beach for several years with her sweet momma, Ann and Penny. We had many talks in either her bedroom or mine. I am so sorry she has left us and we didn’t have a chance to reconnect! But she is in a better place, so sorry David and her daughter. Prayers and sympathy to both of you. Margaret Mclin Wright.
