Penny and her mother were in my Joy of Living class, and they always had such sweet stories to share. She and Dorothy made such a huge impact in my life and she will be greatly missed. I treasured our friendship and will miss her deeply. My prayers are with you all during this sad time, and I pray that you find peace in knowing she is with our Lord. Until we meet again...love, hugs, and prayers.

What a special lady Penny was to my life!! She has blessed my heart since the days we were in Joy of Living together at Second Baptist. Her love for her Lord was inspiring. My prayers are with you, her family as I can only imagine how much you miss her! Keep your eyes to the skies because she is with Jesus! May His peace that passes all understanding fill your hearts as you walk this journey of grief!
