Not only was she an asset to the community, but was loved and respected by all and will be missed. So sorry for the loss for you and all of us.

Dear, dear, Penny, I knew this day was coming, and soon; but nothing prepares one for the fact when it becomes known. My sincere condolence to your surviving family. I can, however take solace in the fact that I know two people in Heaven who have already welcomed you for coffee and pie at The Ranch: your mother, Trudy, and my mother, Esther. May your daily get-togethers role on with laughter and wisdom...forever! Medley Gatewood

I met Penny over 50 years ago at Scout Haven in Charley Brown Park. My Girl Scout troop was staying in the cabins for a few days. Penny wasn't my leader but she was there and provided entertainment, acted as an activity director and just helped with everything :) About 15 years ago I mentioned to her that I remembered a particular skit she had put on and recited some of her lines. She had a good laugh over that. She made such an impression on me. Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing Penny will never forget her! You, her family, are in my thoughts and prayers as you say goodbye to this lovely woman. May God bless you all and Godspeed Penny.

FAREWELL DEAR ONE. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN BY THIS "WORDSMITH". YOU HAVE DONE SO VERY MUCH FOR SO VERY MANY, ESPECIALLY THE RAILROAD DEPOT PEOPLE, AND THIS ONE IN PARTICULAR. FLORA WILL NEVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT THE DENSON FAMILY. YOU WERE SO BRAVE IN THE BATTLE OF LIFE. ALL IS WELL..............SAFELY REST..............GOD IS NIGH

Judy Conard

Penny, I will miss Mondays with you, we always had a lot to talk about and you always had a smile

Roberta Wascher

So sad to hear of Penny's passing, yet relieved she will no longer have to suffer. Penny taught me (as well as many others) the value of mentoring, as she shared her life experiences with such passion and zest.

Larry & Sue Kramer

It helps if you knew John O. Denson. Penny's father was as brilliant and witty as any man. And, Penny was a reincarnation of John O. Denson. This lady was well read. You must be ready and able to defend your position on almost any subject because Penny could handle a conversation on most of life's fundamental issues. Celebrate a life. Penny Denson was a wonderful person and I/we will miss her.

Vernon and Shelly Burkett

We have known Penny for a few short years. In that time we had a respect for each other. You will be missed dear Lady.

John Bayler

My heart just broke and I have tears in my eyes. Although I really didn't know Penny that well she was my biggest fan. I am at a loss for words. There is so much I wanted to talk to Penny about, and I was looking forward to her helping me edit a book. Rest in Peace Penny. If I ever publish a book on photography I will dedicate it to you.

Jane & Ray Snyder

So sorry to learn of Penny's passing. She was truly a unique individual with a brilliant mind and will be missed by all who knew her.

Betty Simmons and Tim Anderson

Goodbye to a wonderful friend

Shannan Simmons Carrell

So sad to loose someone that was such a part of my life. I fondly remember your birthday "parade", meeting Sandy Allen, decorating floats for the Halloween parade, breakfast at the Gallery, evenings with you while you edited my research papers (still could use you for that ; ) and even rushing your visits with my mom by honking the car horn in the driveway (sorry about that). Each Christmas I looked forward to the Hallmark ornament that you picked out especially for me ...even into adulthood. You will be fondly missed and thought of often.

Levi Harris

Penny, bless your heart. You were such a good friend to me, through years when I really needed good friends the most. You were always cheerful and wise, and we had such good conversations about politics and books and history. The world is a poorer place without you in it. I remember the funny story of your christening, and how the pastor got your name wrong -- "Penna-Lope Jane" instead of Jane Penelope. I trust the mistake won't have confused St. Peter when he met you at the gate, and I look forward to many bright years in the hereafter with you, talking about all the things we never got time to talk about here below. Matt, be careful. Love, Levi

I am sorry to hear of Penny's death. Gertrude, Margaret, and I were childhood friends in Decatur. I spent many happy years with the McLeans. Margaret was my lifelong best friend. I am so sorry for your loss. Katherine Kazmark Rogne 5477 County Road 1 Kindred, ND 58051

Penny Denson was truly a remarkable lady. She was very knowledge-able, serious minded and always had time for a smile. Penny's traits were inherited from her wonderful parents, John O. and Gertrude Denson. I feel very fortunate to have known and worked with the Denson family at the "Flora Daily News-Record", which they owned and operated. I have alot of good memories of Penny and the Denson family. Penny and her family were an asset to Flora. I am praying that God will give strength to the family. Dolores Bratton, Broken Arrow, OK
