Leroy Penn's son Robert informed Milt Heflin that the memorial tree for Leroy has been planted. The location of the tree is on the walkway between the Gilruth Center parking lot (back side) and the jogging trail. Leroy's tree is the 2nd tree on the left side. Anyone can view the tree by entering the Gilruth Center on Space Center, drive to the back parking lot and look for the walkway leading to the jogging trail. No badge is required.
