Peggy spent her life dedicated to caring for her family, the epitome of selflessness. She opened her heart and home to anyone who needed love, comfort, or a place to belong. She endured many hardships in life but her courage, strength and perseverence was unmatched and an inspiration to all who were blessed to know her. Everything she did came from her heart.

She was deeply loved and will be sorely missed.
