Peggy was one of the sweetest Jaynes i ever knew. I'll always be glad we sat with her and Don and members of their family at a Fair function shortly before Don passed.
My vision of Heaven includes putting on a Fair! Looking forward to our first Heaven's Fair committee meeting together.
Peggy, enjoy those wings! You've earned them
