Mike Penner Funeral Expenses & Hospital Bills

UPDATE:

It is with a heavy heart that I write that our father Michael Penner has passed away.

He left this world and went to Heaven to be with his mom and dad and he has missed them so much and I am sure he is loving and hugging them as I type this.

He fought a long and hard battle to stay with us but in the end there was nothing else medically that could be done.

For the past 6 months he has had so many hospital, ICU and Rehab stays hoping that every time would be the last and he could come home healthy and happy, unfortunately that was not the case.

Our dad was a one of a kind man, stubborn to his core and never held his tongue.

He was amazingly sweet, I remember growing up he welcomed any and all of our friends into our home with open arms, most have since become family.

He loved spending time with his family, his Grandchildren meant the world to him. There is nothing he wouldn't do for them.

He loved his children, Natasha, Tiffany, Sue Lynn, Michael and Crystal.

He absolutely adored his wife Tammy that he will have been married to for 41 years on November 29th, of this year.

He loved fishing and camping, watching John Wayne movies, Joe Cocker, Elvis and Roy Orbison.

This money we raise will be put towards his funeral expenses, the many hospital bills and to help our mother and sister Sue Lynn who has Down Syndrome, the two people who have been by his side forever, we want to let them be at least a bit comfortable while they mourn his loss, because it is such a Great Loss to our family. He was an amazing man.

Watching our father die is the worst thing any of us have been through, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

However knowing he is no longer suffering and in pain means so much, he is now with his Mother and Father and Aunts and Uncles who he has missed for so many years, who he adored in Heaven, watching over all of us and finally back to his healthy self.

I know money is tight for everyone right now and asking for this is hard for us, but we would be incredibly grateful for anything anyone can donate, even if you could just share this to get it out to others would mean the world to us.

God bless you all and thank you for your compassion and support during this difficult time,

With love and gratitude,

The Penner Family
