Penny was born on March 6, 1948, in Dallas, TX. She attended the University of Southern Mississippi (USM), where she was a Dixie Darling, and The University of Mississippi (Ole Miss).
Penny was creative, artistic, and had an amazing style that was all her own. Spending time with her was always filled with stories and laughter.

She was truly one of a kind and will be so missed.
