She was preceded in death by her father, Joy Jervis; one sister, Lori Sue Jervis; her grandmother, Ann Wade.
She is survived by her mother, Sue Ann Jervis Heath, and her husband, Bodell; her brother, Joey Jervis; her sisters, Zina Renee Egan, Carlotta Jackson and her husband, Terry; several nieces and nephews; and her loving dog, Ozzy.

I am so sorry about Penny, She was a great friend to me when she lived in Washington. I know she will be missed so much. May God bless and comfort all of you as only He can is my prayer.
Penny had such a big heart. I have thought of her often over the years. Sorry for your loss.
A Rose for your mom. May God embrace her threw this time and warm her breaking heart allowing her hand to guide her family into the future. Be well Mrs. Heath.
Rest in peace Penny. May your family find peace in your memories and God watch over them all as you rest at his side.
My grandchildren loved being with Miss Penny at JPC.. She took up so much time with them and loved them. They always asked about Miss Penny. Â
