Peggy Yukiko Pagan

December 27, 1924 – June 11, 2022

Peggy Yukiko Pagan lived a full and loving 97 years before leaving us peacefully on June 11th 2022 at Maui Memorial Medical Center.

She was predeceased by her beloved husband Moses Pagan of 63 years. Moses left us on October 19, 2011. They are reunited once again in heaven happily ever after. Moses held his hand out to Peggy and whispered softly, “Lady, what took you so long?” Peggy met the love of her life in Paia when Moses came home for a furlough while serving in the 299th Brigade in the United States Army.

Peggy was born in Paia, the daughter of young pioneers who journeyed from Japan, Yoshino and Mataichi Hiraoka.They settled in Store Village, a plantation camp. They had many neighbors who became close like family.
