I've been reflecting a lot about the 10 year anniversary of your passing, and I just don't know what to say. I miss you so much Penny. My love for you has never wavered; I just wish you were still here. The world is not as fun without you in it. I love you darlin'.

Solace must be discovered, my heart still empty, I shower to
wash away the emptiness, but it is still there. Without you my
heart remains empty. My soul forever lost without you in my
world. My solace undiscovered.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal
Love leaves a memory no one can steal
When someone you love becomes a memory,
the memory becomes a treasure to keep forever.
It has been another year since your passing, and
I still miss you and think of you all the time.
My love for you is still strong in my heart.
Till next year my love.

Sending love and hugs to Marcia, Dick and Scott at this time of remembering Penny. I can picture her smile from ear to ear. I remember her kindness and love for animals. I remember how she loved to sunbathe by the pool and her laugh. Penny was her own unique person. Her spirit lives on through the sunbeams that shine down. I pray for comfort for the loved ones she left behind way too soon. I had the pleasure of being with the family this past Sunday and felt that Penny was with us also. Angels do exist.

Memories are like footsteps
I follow the footsteps because

Your footsteps are all around me
I love you and miss you Penny

Not a day goes by that I don't see something that reminds me of you and some silly thing you did or said. Dad and I miss you so much. I think Ashlee does also, she knew you for such a little time but you two had fun together. Spencer was too little to remember. Rest in peace dear daughter. Dad and I put new flowers on your grave.

Another year has passed since your departure.
Memories of you, a vision in a little black dress.
Your beautiful long blonde hair and that captivating smile.
Your laugh that still reverberates in my mind.
I am always reminded of you by the little things in everyday
life, like a funny sign, a familiar location, favorite songs,
everything! The memories flood back!
You are not forgotten and are always a part of me.
Love is love and not fade away!
I love you and miss you so much Penny!

Another year has passed
since your departure
I love you and I'm still missing you!
Love I get so lost, sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are...
In your eyes
The light the heat
In your eyes
I am complete
In your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes
The resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes
I see the light and the heat
In your eyes
Oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
The heat I see in your eyes
You are my light and my heat
I love you Penny & I miss you so much!

I will always remember the fun times in high school. You made it bearable for a lot of us with your humor, laugh and watching Batman and The Monkees. All of us learned something from you, and I will never forget. To this day, when I hear a Billy Idol song I think of you. Rest, rest in peace Penny. We love you.

Well Penny, I know it has been a few months since we talked, but I am very honored to have met and known you. Highly intelligent, full of knowledge, and a pure love for animals.
I will miss your oddball humor, spontaneity, and those until late night conversations about life. I will miss you dearly, believe it or night I still considered us best friends. May you sleep in peace, until we see each other again. Goodnight PennState

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.
