Sad to learn of the passing of Duke (Jeff Penick)
Eileen shared "Yes, my handsome and fun husband is no longer with me. Jeff died after complications with pneumonia on Tuesday. I am so grateful for the adventurous and fun years we had together, literally traveling the world, and living in interesting and fascinating places. What better memories could I ask for. Thank you all for your kind and loving responses."
They were in the process of moving back to Denver when he got sick with pneumonia and died. Eileen ad him cremated and will bury him at a National Cemetery in Colorado at a later date.
I saw on FB this am (His wife Eileen’s page) that Jeff Pennick died unexpectedly yesterday. She said it was from pneumonia. So sad.

Glenna and I am very sorry to hear of Jeff’s passing. We thoroughly enjoyed are time spent with Jeff and Eileen at the last Reunion. They did a great job Hosting the Reunion!!
Strongly recommend we all keep up on having our pneumonia shots (my doctor recommends every five years. Check with your doctors)
Our Best to you all this coming New Year.
Glenna & Jim Martens
Jim Marten's comments are right-on regarding Eileen and Jeff, and pneumonia shots. My shots are taken annually in two increments, a basic and a booster shot three months later.
Jeff and Eileen's hard work will be lasting inspiration for future reunions.

Val and I are very sad to note the passing of this gentleman. We knew him only from our last reunion, but he was a fun guy and ready to host another reunion there in Vegas. A great personality will be missing from our members. Eileen may he rest in peace.
