Sam, Dan, Katherine and family, I'm just now finding out today (May 1) about the loss of your dear mother. You will all be in my prayers. Sadly, I lost touch with Peggy over the past few years. We worked together for 14 years and I miss those days. She was a friend, sister, and mother to me. I know I'll see her again soon.

Peggy was one of my favorite people. She had a heart bigger than life, and shared it with our family for decades. Her prayers were a gift she gave to us that I am eternally grateful for. I will miss that, her smiles, her laughter, her love and loyalty. What comfort to know she is now with our Saviour, Jesus Christ. To God be the glory!

Peggy was a joy to know and count as a dear friend! She ventured out our way for a very memorable trip which included a stay at our inn. I spoke with her over the phone just a couple of days before her passing and we shared some humor about her work. May God give the family comfort and peace in knowing that she is in a better place. Our condolences to each of you.

We are praying for your family with the loss of such a special lady. She held a special place in our families hearts. She gave some of our children their first copy of the Scriptures- and there truly is no greater gift. We are thankful to have known her and count ourselves blessed to have had her in our lives.

So sorry to see this, although I know she is in glory with many loved ones! I first met Peggy at Ladies' Workout Express at the 6AM workout time. I would see her at weddings and around town. She was very precious and friendly!

Peggy was such a lovely lady, always had a smile on her face. The Greenville High School Class of 1966 always thought she was a part of anything that our class had such as Christmas Parties, Class Reunions, Peggy was a rare jewel of a lady and I will miss her.

I met Ms. Peggy thru Judge Calmes when I was going thru a divorce. She was my strength when I would go into the office. I learned that she liked this tea that I made. I would enjoy seeing her at the grocery store and we would talk about everything. She was such a great joy and a beautiful spirit. I will miss that smile. Thank you Ms. Peggy for sharing your love with me in my time of need.

Peggy may have had 3 sons and 1 daughter but this lady had so much love that there are alot of us "adopted" kid and sisters and brothers. This dear friend leaves a big hole in a lot of hearts! See you soon, Peggy

I have just learned this sad news about a lady my son and I much admired. Peggy. I had reached out just to say hello not long ago. She was a fountain of knowledge and talents. A purposeful life, to be sure. Deepest sympathies. I’m very sad.
