I have very sad news today.  Homer just let us know that Penny Hamilton passed away last night around 11 o'clock.  Penny had cancer - a fast moving melanoma, as we understand it, and has been with her parents, Doug and Nancy, here at Joe's Pond since late summer.  According to what Homer told us, she was at N.V.R.H. when she died.  Our thoughts and prayers are with her family.  I will have more information later, but in the meantime, condolences may be sent to the family at Nancy's:  Nancy Hamilton, P. O. Box 193, West Danville VT 05873.
