Thankful
Penny really helped me and my husband with my Worker's Compensation case and she was more like a friend to us when we were going thru some very hard times with my on the job accident. And when I was unable to return to work she just always made us feel like everything was going to be fine. And everthing was cause she took care of everything and made sure my case was handled right. I am very thankful to Penny for all her help and for her friendship as well.
