Address: Cocoa, FL

On behalf of the Zephyrhills High School Alumni Association ~ our deepest sympathy to the Ron Penn family. Another classmate gone but not forgotten.

RoseMary, Arielle, Penny: Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. Ron was such a fighter and kept a positive attitude while going thru all his chemo treatments. Just know he is in a better place with no more pain & suffering. 

We will always remember when he, Arielle, James & I watched a shuttle launch up close & personal a few years ago. It was a special day and we had lots of fun.  Also will miss seeing him & Arielle at the annual ZHS Alumni reunions. Take care and love to all...Clereen

Ron's exuberance towards life will always be remembered by those who were so fortunate as to work with him (especially on third shift)! My deepest sympathy goes to his family.

Dear Rosemary and family, I pray God's peace will comfort you as only He can do. I enjoyed working with Ron and will miss him. God bless.

We send our prayers and great respect to Ron's family.  The world today has great need of men as Ron always was, men with faith, honor, kindness, and intellect.  Our "hometown" of Zephyrhills, FL and our ZHS Class of 1965 will surely miss one of their own.

Dear Rosemary, Ariel & Family,

So sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad.  He was a kind man who thought the world of you.  You are in my prayers.

Brenda Teixeira, Cocoa, Florida

Dear Ariel, I met U a few times years ago when your were very small.  I started Mended Hearts @ CCH around 1993 and talked your dad into writing the monthly Happy Hearts newsletter for chapter 244.  He has done an outstanding job of this and I'm not sure what the Chapter will do without him!Know that he loved U intenssly, he did everything intensly! He was an extrodidary sensitive & soundly religious man. Consider yourself fortunate to call him "Dad". I am fortunate to call him a friend.
My sincere sympathy to U and the family.
Coleen Strain, RN

Dear Rosemary, Mary, Sylvia, Arielle, and family, I was so sad to hear of your loss. After reading your Dad's book, and althought I only meant him once, I felt like I knew him somehow. Maybe it was the "kindred horse spirit". I know he's riding now. Love ,Lisa

Our sincerest condolences to Ron's family. Ginny and I worked with Ron for many years when he was with several contractors, and the NASA. Ron was a dedicated performer who always went the 'extra mile' to help resolve software problems a technical program as complex as our Space Shuttle often experienced. His expertise will be missed in whatever new program is eventually started at Kennedy Space Center.

Bill and Ginny Wright (Titusville, FL)

The sincerest condolences on the loss of friend and coworker. It was an honor to know and work with such a professional and inspiration. His dedication and contributions to America's space program can only begin to be counted. The entire team at NASA will miss him.

My prayers & thoughts go out to all the family.  I went to school with Pat in Zephyrhills.  So sorry for your loss.

To the family of Ron Penn,
 Our prayers are for comfort and peace during this time of mourning for you all . Hang in there and always remember that God is in control and will comfort you. 

In Christ,
John and Joy Baxley and Family

Our dear Ron was a brave, gentle, honest, intelligent and deeply spiritual man filled with integrity and compassion.  He will be deeply missed in our communty and his family has our heartfelt sympathies.

Rosemary and family, My condolences to you all in this difficult time. I knew and worked with Ron from my first days at KSC in 1980 when he was a programmer for C&D until my departure from KSC last July. He was always kind to me and a pleasure to work with. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Rosemary, Ariel and family, 
Your dad was such an inspiring example of  faithfulness and hope, even in the midst of suffering. We pray you will take comfort in the awareness of Jesus' bearing your sorrow with you. But we do not grieve without hope, knowing that in Christ the separation is only temporary. After our six years of volunteering with him at Seafarers, we will always thank the Lord for the privilege of knowing him as a dear friend and brother in Christ. Your dad was and is very special.

Rosemary and family, my most sincere condolences to you all in this time of loss. Ron was the ultimate professional and a caring co-worker whom we will all miss dearly. May you find comfort knowing he is with our heavenly Father.

Rosemary, Ariel, and family,
You are in our prayers during this difficult time.  Your Dad was a great guy who loved you all dearly and always talked about you and how much he loved you.  He was a dear friend to me, as well as a mentor at work.  He will be  missed. Sincerey, Jill Giles

Dear Rosemary and family,
Our sincere sympathy on the passing of your beloved Father.  Ronnie was my nephew whom I loved dearly.

He is without pain; he is in Heaven with our Lord, and will continue doing whatever the Lord bids him to do.  May Ronnie rest in Peace. 
Lovingly,  Aunt Evelyn and Jim.
