Nancy Marie Penko

Nancy Marie Penko (nee Yeray) age 78, passed away on Thursday, June 27, 2024. She was born on March 19, 1946 in Cleveland, Ohio to Stanley and Mary Yeray. Nancy took great pride in everything she did. From her job at Reliance Electric where she met her husband of 54 years, to her job at home being an amazing wife, mom, and Ginga. Nancy was the most loving and caring person you could ever meet. Family was the most important thing to her, she loved to see everyone happy and laughing. "Ginga" would make it to every one of Ty and Tory's sporting events possible. Some of her favorite memories are the many weekends spent at their cottage at Pymatuning Lake, bike riding, fishing and sitting around the camp fire with family and friends. She also loved to golf, bowl, sew, play bingo, and try her luck at various casinos. Waiting for her in heaven are her parents and her brother, Stanley (Mary). Carrying on her memory are her husband, Frank; son, Doug; daughter, Danelle (Troy); and grandchildren, Ty, Tory and Whitney.
A funeral service will be on Thursday July 11, 2024 at 7:30pm at Brickman Bros. Funeral Home 37433 Euclid Ave. Willoughby, where the family will receive friends from 6-8 PM.
In lieu of flowers, we ask that you buy yourself a scratch off lottery ticket, do a random act of kindness, and think of Nancy.
