She was born September 14, 1932, a daughter of the late Maple Helmick Richardson. On June, 23 1951 she married James Pennington who preceded her in death. Hilda is survived by three sons, Jim Pennington and wife Anna of Dallas, TX, John Pennington and wife Amanda of Elkins, WV, Joe \u201cJO JO\u201d Pennington of Elkins, two daughters, Debbie Legg and husband Rick of Charleston, WV, Joni Crum of Morgantown, three granddaughters, Jessica Legg and fiance Sam Boggs of Charlestons, WV, Jordan Legg and fiance Jacob Bagwell of Pittsburg, PA and Lindsy Baker of Elkins, WV. Also surviving are two brothers, Robert \u201cBob\u201d Helmick of Louisville, KY, Bernie \u201cPooch\u201d Helmick of Columbus, OH, special nephew Brian Helmick, two brothers-in-law, Otha Pennington and wife Betty of Elkins, WV, Leo Pennington and wife Macy of FL, special sister Irene Sutton of Cassville, WV and several nieces and nephews. Preceding her in death besides her husband and mother were two brothers, Gay Helmick and Dana Helmick, and one sister Linda. Hilda was the owner of Cardinal Gifts and Bridal for over thirty years. She received much joy in the many Brides she \u201cput\u201d down the aisle. Hilda was involved in many civic and community organizations, such as the Elkins Jaycettes and Womans Club, Davis Memorial Hospital Holly Ball, The Mt. State Forest Festival and as a Teachers Aide with the Randolph County Schools, just to name a few. Her love for Elkins High School and the class of 1951 gave her true happiness throughout her life. Hilda had great pride in being the only Cheerleader in the class of 1951. Hilda was very fortunate to have the Elkins Senior Center, Hospice and her friends and neighbors caring for her over the past few years. Her family wishes to thank everyone who has touched her life through prayers and support over the past few years. At Hilda\u2019s request, her body has been cremated. A Memorial Service and celebration of Hilda&#8217;s life will be held Saturday, January 14, 2012, at 11:00 a.m. at the First United Methodist Church of Elkins, located at 315 Kerens Avenue. Pastor Barry Moll will officiate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><a style=\"color:Tomato; \" href=\"https:\/\/www.snapwhole.com\/index.php\/randolph-county-west-virginia-area-obituaries\/\">Return to Randolph County Area Obituaries Home Page<\/a><\/center><br><br>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_76968\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"76968\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snapwhole.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Return to Randolph County Area Obituaries Home Page Hilda Helmick Pennington, 79, a resident of Elkins departed this life in the early hours of December 24, 2011 at her home with family by her side.
