I’m sorry for your loss. I knew Penny & Jackie when we were young teens; and I think she also briefly worked at AppleCreek Dev.Center – she was a sweet caring lady.

Sending love and prayers
I just saw this today. So sorry about Penny.I am the one she went to beauty school with and did her hair at The Ave
I miss you SO MUCH Penny. I’m sorry for everyone’s loss. You was there for me when my mom had passed. You still mean so much to me. I MISS YOU SO MUCH.
Not sure why I never found you before, I have looked for years. So glad to know where you are. I worked with Penny at STEPS and we remained friends until I was ill, and she moved a few times… I missed her, she was great at tracking me down with her letters… I miss you my friend. I am sorry I couldn’t find you again. God bless her family… and friends ❤️❤️❤️ I knew her as a no non sense lady, and if you were her friend… it was for life.. she loved her children and grandchildren, talking of them often… I will never forget my first visit to her home at the park.. she invited me… and when she knew I would be coming that day she slipped in a comment that her dog she always talked of… I forgot it’s name was a little overweight… spoiled dog, she loved and talked about almost as much as her kids… A toy to small dog… so over weight it was built like a mushroom or center footed footstool… it was very over weight.. but I loved how it was important she tell me before I saw her… as if it mattered… important to say but, down played on description. I enjoyed Penny and missed her. God bless you all❤️❤️❤️.
