Peggy Renee Setzer

She was born on November 8, 1960, in Memphis, Tennessee, to the late Bobby and Merle Howell. In addition to her parents, Peggy was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Butch Setzer, and her brother, Ricky Howell.

Peggy is survived by her loving son, Danny Setzer and his wife April; her cherished grandchildren, Eric, Makenzie, Kendeyl, Evan, and Ayden, who brought her endless joy; her sisters, Gwen Nelson and Debra Miller; her brother, Barry Howell; and her special companion, Wayne Aswell. She was deeply devoted to her family and treasured the time she spent with those she loved most.

Peggy found happiness in the simple pleasures of life. She loved buggy riding through the Tennessee hills around Savannah and spending time boating on Pickwick Lake. An avid reader, she especially enjoyed horror and science fiction novels, with favorite authors including Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and Patricia Cornwell. She also loved relaxing at home watching her soap operas and classic television shows such as Gunsmoke and Little House on the Prairie. Above all, Peggy’s greatest joy came from her family, whom she loved fiercely and unconditionally.
