Hello, My father Terry Yergan and Pennington were very good friends when I was young. I remember him as being one of the coolest friends my dad had. I just came across one of Pennington`s business cards and I googled him and found that he had passed and I´m so very sorry. He was very talented artists in many ways and you should be very proud. I wish you all all of the best.

I met Pennington in 1978. He was an amazing artist and musician and an inspiration in many ways. I will always have fond memories of him and send my thoughts and prayers to his wife Daisy and all of his family and friends. Pennington was a very special human being.

To JoAnn, Pat and Eva:
We mourn with you for the loss of your brother, Pennington. We were all children of St. James Baptist Church and Belle Street. I remember how focused your mother was in seeing that each of you received an excellent secular and Christian education. Pennington was a notable product of that upbringing. We continue to hold the family up to our heavenly parent in prayer.

I met Penn in Mr. Boley's art class in 1962. Mr. Boley was instrumental in launching both of our art careers. Penn was two years older than me but his talent challenged me and inspired me to do better. I was delighted twenty years later to meet again in Chicago and renew our acquaintance. We drove back to Alton together a number of times for the holidays. It was my privilege to know him and consider him my friend.

Hold on tighter to God's unchanging hand, as he is the one to help you get through. "Joy will come in the morning".

May God continue to bless each of you...Nora Hyndman-Woods

In Memory of Pennington McGee and condolences to the family, his wife Daisy, son, sisters, Eva, Pat, and JoAnn, may God comfort and strengthen each of you.

I met Mr. McGee a few times and found him to be a very upbeat and personable. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family at this time.
