Born February 10, 1941, the youngest of four children, Donna was raised on a farm near Ripley. After graduating from high school as Valedictorian she began her lifelong love of teaching after attending Normal School in Stratford. She started her career teaching immigrant children in Toronto and then moved closer to home to teach at Wingham Public School. On Dec. 22, 1962 she married Ray Pennington and they started farming near Teeswater were they raised their three children. In 1986 she returned to teaching this time at Walkerton Public and Brant Central in Walkerton. In 1995 they moved to Walkerton. She volunteered with the Teeswater Agricultural Society for many years including serving as president of the homecraft division. She was active with Lions clubs in Teeswater and Walkerton for 18 years, she held several executive positions, including president. She served within the district as chair of the effective speaking competition and alongside Ray when he served as District Governor and provincially when he was Council Chairman. Donna was also active with the UCW, Sunday School teacher and Superintendent. She was also a 44H leader for many years. When she fell seriously ill in May 2000, she was given one to three years to live, but she refused to give up.
