PENNINGTON It is with great sadness we share the news of the passing of Bruce Carter Pennington, 82, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. He died on Oct. 13, 2015, after a lengthy illness. Bruce is survived by his wife, Sigrid Helga Pennington, children Carter Pennington (Angela) of Wappinger Falls, N.Y., Juliet Pennington (James Matte) of North Attleboro, Mass., and Adam Dwight Pennington (Rachel) of Irvington, N.Y., and eight grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother, Brian Pennington (Laurie), of McKinney, TX, and several cousins, nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his first wife, Gloria Pennington. Born Oct. 22, 1932, to Dwight and Esther Carter Pennington of Kansas City, Bruce was a graduate of Marlborough Grade School and Southeast High School. Before joining the Army in 1953, he graduated from Kenyon College in Gambier, OH. In 1954, he moved to Hollywood, California, to make his mark in the world of entertainment, writing for "The Dick Van Dyke Show," among other network programs. In the late 1960s, Bruce and his family moved to New York to work in corporate communications. In 1991, he and Helga returned to his family home, "Pen Oaks," in Kansas City, where he volunteered for numerous organizations including Native Sons and Daughters of Greater K.C., Liberty Memorial Restoration, and the K.C. Film Festival. A Memorial Service celebrating Bruce's life will be held at noon on Sunday, Oct. 25, 2015, at Pilgrim Chapel, 3801 Gillham Road, Kansas City. In lieu of flowers, Helga would appreciate contributions to defray medical expenses.
