Jeff, Sam and Alex–
Oh, how sorry I am for your loss of Peggy. As so many have said here, she was a beautiful, lively, memorable woman. I have so many treasured memories of her during our childhood, so many that make me smile….simply because of the unique person she has always been. From the brief glimpses I had of her life these past few years, I could tell that the most important thing in her life was the three of you. My heart and prayers go out to you.

Jeff, Sam & Alex,
So very sad to read the news of Peggy’s passing. We know your hearts are filled with painful loss but hope treasured memories of her soon bring you comfort. We will never forget her beautiful smile. You have our deepest sympathy.
Never was the expression “she was the glue” better applied then when thinking about her role and service at the United Way of Douglas, County. As a tenant and partner she got things done, she problem solved with a servant heart and she played. Her presence will be missed but her spirit is here and I will always remember her smile and laugh. My thoughts are with Jeff and the boys as they navigate the days without her.
Jeff, Alex and Sam
So sorry to hear about Peggy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time.
