Always ready to have fun and make every moment count, Grandma Penny and Grandpa Russ embody the heart of fostering!
Licensed with TFI since October 2023, this incredible couple first welcomed a sibling group of four into their home and are now caring for a sibling set of three. In between placements, they continue to make a meaningful impact by offering respite care to fellow TFI foster families.
Their support has been especially felt in the Hastings and Doniphan communities, where they’ve helped strengthen other homes and created lasting, positive bonds with children along the way.
TFI is proud to have families of all ages—like Grandma Penny and Grandpa Russ—who step up and show what it means to truly care.
