Penelope "Penny" Doyle passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on September 18, 2024. Penny was born on October 14, 1935, in Holyoke, Massachusetts, to her late, beloved immigrant parents, Arthur and Julia Pappas. She was the devoted wife of the late Philip J. Doyle. Penny and Phil spent their sixty-seven-year marriage raising their four children, enjoying time with their grandchildren, and dancing at every opportunity. As an avid veteran’s advocate, she was a supportive caregiver to her husband and a dedicated homemaker. Penny attended Holyoke High School and was a licensed pharmacy technician at Holyoke Medical Center for over 25 years where she enjoyed marching in the St Patrick Day Parade and participating in the “Follies” fundraiser with her co-workers. Her fun-loving energy and enthusiasm could be seen on trips to the casinos, while dancing the night away or just enjoying music. Guided by her faith and pride in her Greek heritage, Penny was a lifelong parishioner at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, served on the church council and was a member in the Ladies Philoptochos Society. Penny shared her husband’s passion for his Italian heritage by serving as the secretary of the Italian Progressive Society for many years. Wherever she went, Penny shared her gift of friendship and connection with everyone she met.
