Thinking of You, Dearest Penelope and all of the amazing times we had back in the day: Captain Fantastic and Emma's Lucky Strikes on your sun porch, water balloon wars out the back of Christie's station wagon. My most sincere condolences to your beautiful family, especially 'Little Penny'. We're all blessed by your light.
