  • Obituary
  • Guestbook
Daniel Thomas Penvose entered into the loving arms of his Savior on Friday, March 8, 2013. Danny was born at Dow Hospital on April 9, 1951, and was a lifelong resident of Freeport.

Danny is survived by his mother, Virginia Penvose, daughter Julie Penvose Farmer, brother David Penvose of Freeport, brother John Penvose and wife Sandy and their children Eric, Stephen and Susan of Tampa, Florida and cousin Tom Penvose and wife Ann of Lake Jackson.

He is preceded in death by his father William "Bill" Penvose.

Danny was a #1 salesman in various auto dealerships in the area, a postal carrier, a Dow operator, and was on the staff of Teen Challenge. Danny loved rock concerts, sporting events, and bowling-but most of all he loved the Lord, and was an avid prayer warrior.

Pallbearers will be Deke Grosvenor, Ed Gonzales, Mark Warny, Corky Parker, Ralph David and John Galvan.

Special thanks to the nurses at A*Med Hospice, and the nurses and staff of Lake Jackson Healthcare.

Viewing will be Monday, March 11, 2013 at noon at Lakewood Funeral Chapel, Lake Jackson. Services will follow immediately at 2:00 p.m. with Pastor Craig Taylor of Family Life Church officiating.

I visited with Danny during a trip to the B'port area in 2009. He shared his faith with me and I left with the assurance that he knew the Lord. Sending my condolences to the family.

Dan and I went back a long way. He arrived at the Dow Hospital in 1951 only 16 days before I did. We grew up together, attended the same schools, and played together in the same parks, fields, ditches, streets, and alleys. We and our families were members of Freeport United Methodist Church.
I remember one Sunday in the church nursery when I was only two years old. I was standing in my crib when something hit me in the back of the head. I turned around and wouldn't you know it? There was Danny, standing in his crib just laughing like crazy.
I am truly thankful to have been able to call Dan my friend. We were prayer partners, and I will miss him and especially his Christian spirit.
God Bless you my friend, and your family.
