Burial was in St. Patrick Cemetery, Merland. Ms. Halfpenny died December 25, 2018. She had a great love of all things in nature, of animals and gardening. She appreciated and loved art and creating her own new pieces. Her children being her greatest creations they were and always will be her best. She was and always will be so proud of being their mother, teaching them and watching them grow into great little people. Her love of them was and always will be endless. God now has another angel. She walked to her own beat; she had a heart of gold as big as the world itself. Always looking out for those around and letting her actions speak more than her words.
