PENNY LEE GARNETT's Obituary
Penny Lee (Glessner) Garnett of Millsboro and formerly of Federalsburg, MD passed away on Friday, September 23, 2016. She was 64 years old.
Penny was born on August 27, 1952 in Easton, MD to the late Ray and Jane Louise Atkinson Glessner. In addition to her parents she is also preceded in death by her husband, Jeffrey Garnett and a brother, William Jopp.
Penny was currently employed by the Town of Dewey Beach where she worked as the Director of Accounting. She loved to travel, spend time with her friends, and working in her flower garden. But her greatest love was spending time with her children and grandchildren. She was kind and soft spoken but also knew how to stand her ground.
She is survived by a daughter, Tammie Lynn Horn and her husband Matthew of Millsboro, DE; a son, Larry Glenn McQuay of Millsboro, DE; three brothers, Starkey Glessner and his wife Pat of Seaford, DE; Gary Glessner and his wife Melva Jean of Preston, MD; and Hoppy Glessner of Fairhope, PA; four grandchildren; Luke, LeeAnn, Lance and Gracee. She is also survived by many extended family and dear friends including her Dewey Beach comrades who were more like family than co-workers.
A funeral service will be held at 1:00 PM on Saturday, October 1, 2016 at the Watson Funeral Home, 211 S. Washington Street., Millsboro, DE 19966, where friends may call one hour prior for the viewing and visitation. Burial will follow in Woodlawn Memorial Park.
