When Penny and Rory came out to Idaho for a visit, we had so much fun getting to know each other. We floated down the Selway River (a wild and scenic river in Idaho). She came to Idaho with my sister Carrol and niece Jenny. Time and distance kept us from getting to know each other better but I will always have fond memories of our visit and time together. Rest in paradise Penny.
Penny will be in my memories forever. She graciously gave me my forever equine friend Moose. We had many barn chats, phone calls, photo shares and barn visits. I will miss her deeply. The world was a better place when she was here. She will be missed immensely!
Penny was such a wonderful member of her neighborhood in Caledonia. I really enjoyed working with her on Caledonia Conservancy committees. She had such
a wry sense of humor. God bless!
