Marion (Penny) Louise Hart, age 79, departed this world on the wings of angels on Saturday, August 30, 2014.

She leaves behind her husband of 57 years, Bill Hart, her three children: Tiffany Jacobs, Tom Hart, and Diana Roman, and her sister Dorothy Lacy, brother-in-law Fred Lacy, sister-in-law Judy Meinke.

She also leaves behind eight grandchildren: Matthew, Sandra, Jonathan, Smokie, Rocky, Clay, Tom II (Indy), Karin, and twelve great-grandchildren: Aurora, Tristan, Evie, Kevin, Orion, Tyler, Jaxyn, Jamisen, Aspen, Everett, Hudson, and Isla.

The second of two children, Penny was born in Los Angeles to Esther and Scott Hall. She attended Hollywood High School and Glendale Community College.

In her teens, she was a member of the Hollywood Bowl Easter Sunrise Service Children’s Choir. During her high school years, Penny was an usherette at several major theaters in Hollywood, including the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, a dream job for her. She loved the magic of Hollywood with a passion and had an encyclopedic knowledge of movies and movie stars. Her loving spirit made her one of the best usherettes Hollywood had.

Penny and her future husband, Bill, met when children and shared their first kiss when she was eleven years old. They married in 1957, and their family grew to include two daughters and a son. Bill and Penny were inseparable, spending the following 57 loving years together. Her family meant the world to her.

Lovers of animals and respecters of all life, she and Bill became vegetarians in their thirties, a practice she adhered to for the rest of her life. Penny always, said “Nothing should have to die in order for me to eat”. She loved flowers and especially enjoyed old-fashioned fragrant sweet peas and the smiling faces of her pansies.

Penny had a friendly and outgoing spirit which held so much love it couldn’t help but spill out, making her an easy friend and wonderful mom, grandma, and great-grandma. She loved the Lord and she embodied what it means to be a Christian as she loved those around her. She attended many churches, her last one being the Eagle Nazarene Church family.

The family wishes to express their gratitude to the staff of Legacy Hospice and Amber Lane Residence for their care and love during Penny’s last days with us.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00am on Thursday, September 4, at the Eagle Church of the Nazarene in Eagle, Idaho. Following the service, there will be a short committal at the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery.

Flowers may be sent to Alden-Waggoner Funeral Home, Boise, Idaho; phone (208) 376-5400.
