My heart goes out to all of you. Peggy was a wonderful and dear person to so many. To me she was my older cousin and full of mischief. I will always remember the summers that were spent together. Her teasing Barb and myself and always looking so innocent when she had dome something to the two of us. Her journey through life was filled with much love, much heart ache and trials and tribulations. Anyone who knew her could see her wonderful heart and giving spirit. She will be cherished in memories forever. For those of us who are left the ache in our heart will be replaced by the fact that she is no longer in pain and her body is whole. She will always be besides us and her memory will never die. Hold each other close and just know I love you all.
All our Love

My prayers are with you and the family. I have memories with each of you as well as Peggy. Mostly of lots of laughter! And Choir. She is having a grand reunion with so many who have gone before–I’m envious! Love you. Take care. My prayers will continue for God to comfort you all.
A. Peggy’s death is a bittersweet as hard as me writing this, she is reunited with U. Lyle and other loved ones that passed before her AND then she leaves loved ones behind.
I will miss our vists, her laugh, her humming and singing softly after watching her church programs Sunday afternoons while crocheting (which shes done a few baby blankets for me), asking about family and how they’re doing , offering some friendly advice and keeping me up on the apartments current events. I can keep going on for she was a part of my life as long as I can remember. I will miss her greatly but I can sit back and know she is still with us in our hearts and at peace.
Prayers to all of you, may peace and love come to you in this time of grief.

So sorry to hear about Peggy’s passing. She was a sweet lady and friend for years. Thoughts and prayers for all her family.
To the family: Peggy was a dear gal. She was one who brought smiles and light into any place she was. She loved to sing in Corey’s church choir. She was a master at crocheting and word games of all kinds. She had a giving spirit and a sly little trick up her sleeve that always got a laugh. She loved her her family, especially her nieces and nephew, and she made the best out of what she had. I can only imagine those big smiles when she and Jesus meet.
My condolences to all of the family. Peggy had been a dear friend of mine for years. She always had a smile for everyone. She will be missed.
