Cousin Paul, Karen, Pam and family. I have many fond memories of cousin Penny when she use to come to visit us here in Halifax and in the Plains. She was always very kind to me and when I married Roger she welcomed us in her home and we did visit often. I believe she had an alterier motive because we all know she loved to be waited on. (smile) On the other hand we loved each other and were good friends. God rest her soul until we see her again. Continue to love and care for one another. You all are in our prayers always. Love cousins Paula and Roger Baptiste

Penny's counsel, encouragement and good example in her work in the CNWC and the baptist church were beneficial to many of us who followed. How fortunate we were to have had her!
