She was a faithful member of the Skyllkill Needlework Chapter of the Embroiderer's Guild Of America until she was overcome by Alzheimer's disease. ​ There will be no local memorial at this time but if you wish to remember Pat Pennington, her family encourages you to treat an animal with kindness and make a donation to your local library.
