Pamela "Pennie" Baughman passed into Glory on October 8, 2025. She was born on July 28, 1946, in Kansas City, Missouri to Glenn Sr and Dorothy Rhodes. Pennie grew up in Kansas City before moving her career to Dallas, Texas. From Dallas, Pennie moved with her daughters (Danielle and Tiffany), rearing them in the Austin, Texas area. After Danielle and Tiffany's graduation, Pennie moved to Houston, Texas to care for her father, Glenn Sr. Eventually, Pennie returned to Kansas City, where she spent her later years.

Pennie cherished every moment with her friends and family, and was happiest and found the most joy when spending time with her family. Her remarkable generosity touched the lives of many, and she will always be remembered for the warmth and kindness she showed with those around her.
