Penny was a Thanksgiving Day baby, born on November 27, 1952 in Sioux City, the daughter of Gilford “Gil” and Joyce (Janson) Bennett. She graduated from East High School in 1971. Penny married Roger Burgett on April 28, 1973 in Sioux City. The couple moved to Boyden, Iowa in 1988 and lived there for 11 years, returning to Sioux City in 1999.
Penny worked for Natural Beauty Greenhouse formally DenHoed’s Greenhouse in the mid 1990’s. She was a member of St. James United Methodist Church and loved her time volunteering at The Heritage at Northern Hills.
Penny was very artistic and enjoyed doing crafts, crocheting, sewing, and photography. Some of her work won ribbons at the Woodbury County Fair, which she enjoyed attending with her grandkids. Family and friends were very important to Penny, but her greatest pride, joy, and love were her four grandchildren.
She is remembered with love by her husband Roger Burgett; children: Michael Burgett of Sioux City and Mary (Jeremy) Brock of Maple Grove, MN; grandchildren: Dylan and Natalie Brock of Maple Grove, MN and Bracin and Bria Burgett of Sioux City; her mother Joyce Bennett of Sioux City; brother Dan (Susan) Bennett of Sioux City; twin sister Jenny (Richard) Hodges of Sioux City, sister Amy (Kelly) Tweedy of Sioux City, two sisters in law: Marcia Tolles of Hartford, SD and Janice Burgett of Sioux City; and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and a host of close friends and neighbors.
Penny is preceded in death by her father Gil Bennett, infant brother Tiny Tim, mother and father in law Donald and Helen Burgett, brother in law Chester Tolles, and her maternal and paternal grandparents.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Penny’s memory to Hospice of Siouxland or a charity of your choice.
