It has been a long-time time since I have seen my Aunt Penny, but I think of her often and with fondness. My dad Roger was Denny’s brother and we used to spend many weekends at their home helping around the shop and eventually the property in Randal. No matter what time we arrived, there were sandwiches ready, and Pepsis in the fridge. Most of my favorite childhood memories involve those weekends.
Years later my children got to meet their Aunt Penny, and she had their sandwiches ready, and the sodas were still in the fridge.
She will be greatly missed and will always hold a special place in my heart.
PS-She was the only person ever allowed to call me “Kimmy Ann” and have me answer, and that will always be so.

I am writing this for our son Jordan Lennox who has been a friend of Penny for over 25 years. I asked him his memory and he shared ever so sweetly and with a term of endearment that Penny was a "pain in the butt"....because she teased him whenever they were together. Jordan would also banter and jab back and then it was "On". They had good times together.

Penny loved movies like Jordan does and over the years she showed kindness to him by letting him borrow her VCR tapes and or DVD's.....he would always return them but often it would be months before he brought them back. She would always let him borrow again...showing kindness. He still has one DVD at our house to return but this time when he walks down to return it....Penny's smile, teasing and sharing laugh won't be there.

These last couple years whenever a medic or firetruck went down our shared street Jordan would show concern that it could be going for Penny. He was always sad when we would get a report that she was under the weather, hospitalized or most recently had passed away. He feels sadness for your family and this huge loss.

In closing Jordan mentioned the fun day we all had together at the "Spragg property" in Packwood over 25 years ago. It was a great day with the family.

Thanks for letting Jordan participate in the fun and blessing of being a part of your family's life. It's been so good for him. Rest peacefully Penny.

Grandmas house, the place for family and friends. As a kid growing up I can’t count how many times my cousin and I would bring all of our friends back to grandmas house for lunch or just a place to meet up. It was like magic, sandwiches always just appeared for everyone. Grandma never had a thought of even saying no. Every holiday it was no question that we would be at Grandma and Grandpa’s, because their house was the heart of our family. Grandma loved being around her family and hosting all of the holidays. One thing none of us will forget is the welcome you got every time you walked in the door and rounded that corner to see her in that recliner of hers and the small feeling of panic if she wasn’t there. Lastly, the one thing I do know for certain is she will be greatly missed by everyone that was in her life. But we all know she’s up there watching down on us with her main man Grandpa now and she is happy. We love and miss you grandma. Love Nathan

My name is Alyssa and I am the wife of Nathan, Penny’s grandson. The day I was introduced to Penny I knew in my heart that I was exactly where I needed to be. She had a welcoming smile and talked to me as if she’d known me my whole life. I could tell from the way Nathan talked about her and told stories from his childhood that she played a huge roll in making him the man he is today. The love for her grandchildren and great grandchildren was immeasurable and I know that she is smiling down at each one of them hand in hand with her husband watching the beautiful family they created flourish.
