Peggy Maureen Arnold

Peggy Maureen Arnold left her earthly home for her forever home with the Lord Jesus on the evening of January 19, 2022. Peggy was born on March 6, 1931, in Wapanucka, OK, to George and Mae Howell. Still a child, her family moved to Kansas City, KS, where she resided until marriage. Peggy was a graduate of Argentine High School. She married her husband Norman in January of 1953. She quickly became a Navy wife, stationed from one coast to the other. Together they created a beautiful family that included three children. Peggy and her family moved to Dallas, TX, in 1969. She was a homemaker until her children reached high school, at which time she began a new career at Lone Star Steel Inc. until retirement. Peggy and Norman enjoyed family, grandchildren and travel until his death in 1987. Peggy continued the business he had started for a few years and worked for her son-in-law until she retired for good at the age of seventy. Peggy remained active in her church and community. She belonged to many clubs through the years: PTA, with two terms as President, church choir, many church committees, North Dallas Women’s Club, Book Club and was a member at Park Forest, Northway and First Baptist Church in Irving. Peggy was a faithful servant of the Lord, devoted wife, wonderful Mother and best Grandma, Grams and Eggy ever.
