Right before the cold winter weather set in our basketball court was poured. It was a very special moment for our family because we dedicated the court to Rob's step-mother, Penny, who passed away a couple years ago. I, unfortunately, never had the opportunity to meet Penny but from what Rob, Bob and the kids have told me she was an amazing lady! She was a driven, focused, and successful woman who dearly loved her husband and family. It was Penny's desire for Rob to own his own home and, thus, in her passing she helped make that dream come true.
So when the basketball was poured our family decided that we were going to do something special to honor Penny's memory. We decided that everyone would put their hand print in upper corner of the court and in the palm of each hand a 2006 (the year the house was built) "Penny" was placed. Now everytime we walk through our front door or play basketball in our backyard we are reminded of Penny.
