Peggy was a very special lady and will be missed by all who knew her. I didn't keep in touch like I should have but thought of her often and always enjoyed visiting with her at the reunions.

How sad I am to see that my sweet friend Peggy passed on. I surely know Heaven acquired another angel. Peggy was a friend acquired
through business and a loyal customer. I always enjoyed her visits.. She surely loved her sons and entire family. My heartfelt condolences to you all.
