I’ve met her once. I was standing in line at City Market and my card wouldn’t work and she paid for my lunch. It was only $5 but it made me cry knowing there were still good people on this Earth. I’m sorry for your loss and for the children’s loss. They are my daughters sisters. I’m told the girls are doing ok. ((Hugs)) She’s safe in Jesus arms now ❤

This is so terrible. I cannot imagine what Penny's girls are going through. And Jim and Melanie, nobody should have to bury a child. Such sad news.
