Dear Jordon, We were very sorry to see the notice of your mother's death. She was a wonderful neighbor and a very strong person. I remember the day you and your mom moved into your home and how happy she was and we were happy to have you both in the neighborhood. One thing I know for sure, and that is that she was very proud of you. Please extend our sympathy to Bob and thank him for taking good care of Peggy and being an important person in her life.

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of peggy. I was in Galens grade,but knew her also.She was a very nice lady.
I was so very sorry to hear of Peggy's passing. I remember Peggy from our long bus rides together home from school back in our EGHS days! I haven't seen Peggy in years, but I remember her easy laugh and her gentle spirit very well! She was always very kind to me, and when I have thought of her over the years it always brought a smile to my face. I want to send my deepest sympathy to all of Peggy's family at this time of sadness and loss. I will pray that God keeps you all in his most tender loving care, and that your happy memories of Peggy will be a comfort to you:) God bless you!
Sincerely,
Renae (Thompsen) Weatherley
