Dr. Claude Lee Pennington Jr.

Kay, Your e-mail got buried and I accidentally deleted it. Please contact me again if you have time. I still think of you often and still grateful for having Dr. Pennington in my life. Lovingly, Linda Pettey Lander

Lee, I just heard about the loss of your Dad. My deepest sympathies to you and your family,

Without a doubt, I owe my career to Claude's mentoring and friendship.. From the early days of watching him operate when I was just 15, to helping me pick the right med school and residency to become an otologist like him..and then sponsoring me for the Triological and Otological societies..Of course, Claude will be forever known for the incus interposition procedure, a brilliantly conceived technique that revolutionized ear surgery and is still the standard 50 years later.. My thoughts are with you Kay..

Wonderful friend for many years. We had the same interest in antique radios.

Kay, My thoughts and prayers are with your and family. I worked for Dr. Pennington from 1965-1967 and a friend just happened to remember that I had worked for him and sent me his obituary. You have my deepest sympathy. I would love to be in contact with you and I have relocated to Hawkinsville, GA. Gaye Peavy Gibbs

Kay, my thoughts are with you and your family. I will always remember the good times when Claude took me out on the boat. It was one of the most memorable days of my life.

Kay, I'm sure you don't remember me, but I remember you well. Dr. Pennington not only saved my life in 1961, but gave me the opportunity to go to nursing school. I'm sorry I didn't contact him before he died to say thank you for giving me the life I have today. I will always love him. Lovingly, Linda Pettey Lander (Hawkinsville, GA - Macon Hospital School of Nursing class of 1965)

Kay, Eve and Lee,
I am so sorry for your loss. I was out of town yesterday and couldn't come to the funeral. Please know you are all in my prayers.
This is a poem I found and I hope you like it.

Up in Heaven a Father waits
Watching over his beloved family from Heaven's Gate.
His family's life he will follow
Embracing evermore from his new Heavenly home.
Patiently enjoying his children's life unfold,
Til in Heaven all will be rejoined.
What for the children may seem forever
Is for the Father only brief.
Since Heaven's time is not as our own.
He is for all time with you, throughout and after your grief.
So, close your eyes and say a prayer – Your Daddy is so near,
Forever and always in your Heart.

Eve, I am so sorry to hear this. I was out of town Friday-Monday and missed the obit in the paper. Please know I care and have so many fond memories of your family on Nottingham Drive. With sympathy & friendship, Janet Butler Walker

I am so sorry for your loss. Dr Pennington took care of three of my children. He was an excellent Dr. and always there for his patients. I have thought of him often over the years.

Eve,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm praying for strength and peace for you and your family.

Kay, As the days and weeks pass,may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. My prayers are with you. Dorothy Jones

Kay we are not going to be able to get to the funeral but remember you are always in our prayers. I know we will all miss Claude, but celebrate his life and cherish the memories.

Claude was a dear friend and mentor to me, and I am deeply saddened by his passing. He was an outstanding physician and surgeon and a true leader in the field of Otolaryngology. I shall remember his keen intelligence and fine sense of humor; he was a joy to be with. May Kay and family find peace in comfort in the days ahead. My prayers for Claude and to all.
