I was so very sad to hear this news of Penny. I worked with her and her mom at AMI a very long time ago. Penny & I became friends and went places together back then. We lost touch later but I will always remember her, her smile and her kindness to everyone. I am so sorry for her family and friends. May God bless and comfort all of you always.

I don't know what to say. Penny was a very good person. Thru my recent health problems she helped me even though she was facing one herself. I met her when she was 13. She was a sweet and kind person then, she stayed that way. Shelby, I know this is very hard for you. I know how much you loved her. But, now she's having fun with Doug and Grandma. I still have fond memories of those days..God bless you Pen.
