I remember working for Mr. Dana Pankey as a twenty year old at his Christian Elementary School in California. He was kind and generous Christian man. R.I.P. Mr. Pankey. My deepest condolences to his family.

This was the most wonderful man I have ever known in my whole entire life, and his most Beautiful Wife Ruth Pankey. This was my angel sent from heaven to get me through some of the most challenging times of my life. I am very sad to hear this news today. My heart is very sad, I can not even express the pain that I am feeling, not being able to say goodbye to my friend.
Dr. Pankey would always tell me "Kid you think you know everything." I still hear his voice in my mind.
Dr. Pankey, you will truly be missed. And yes, I will cry.
Though this Chapter of life has ended. I will see you again one day in the presents of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Many blessings and love to My Beautiful Mrs. Ruth, the Love of Dana's life. And my condolences to the entire family.
