Many days you would see Penny walking to get the mail and on to Young’s Market for some shopping. He visited with people each morning and had a nice smile for everyone.
Three years ago, he broke his hip and needed to be in a wheelchair; that is what ended Penny’s days, as he loved to get out each day.
He loved visiting with friends and family.
Penny will be greatly missed by family and all that knew him.
