Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute

Penni Lu Prewitt Robinette, 68, of Lee’s Summit, MO passed away on Tuesday, July 8, 2025. Penni was born on August 4, 1956, to Maxine and Chester J. Prewitt of Lee’s Summit.

Penni graduated from Lee’s Summit High School and attended Park College, earning a B.A. in Communications. She also attended Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas. She worked at Unity Village as the Director of Sunday School and had a passion for the children. She was a disc jockey for a radio station in Topeka, Kansas and worked as a debt collector for Nationwide Insurance and Berman and Rabin Law Firm in Stillwell, Kansas. Penni used her creative talents and opened a dance studio to teach girls to dance. Penni loved working from home with Creative Memories and lastly as a Scentsy Representative, taking good care of her loyal and new customers alike.

Penni married Daniel Robinette who she’d known since second grade. They made a life together and lived in her childhood home. She loved her grandchildren, Danny Edwards BBQ, and eating out at any good restaurant. Taco night at El Potro was one of her favorites, as well as any of the homemade dishes her husband made for her.

Penni and Dan found a new church home at First Presbyterian Church of Lee’s Summit where they were welcomed with open arms. Penni became a Sunday School teacher and loved being surrounded by kids. They will always be in her heart. Penni’s family thanks the church for their support through her illness.

Penni is preceded in death by her parents and grandmother, Lola Powers. She is survived by her husband, Daniel M. Robinette of the home; stepson Timothy Daniel Robinette (Alissa) and grandchildren, Colton, Carson, Zoey, and Timothy Daniel Robinette Jr.; stepdaughter Lisa Marie Robinette (Jason Jolivet) and granddaughters Jaidyn and Tayla Jolivet of Arizona.
