With love and pride, she poured herself into them, teaching them about Jesus, guiding them with faith and reminding them always of the importance of family.

A woman of remarkable creativity, Peggy’s artistry shone in all she did. She was a gifted crafter, floral arranger, and wedding coordinator, known for bringing beauty and joy to every event she touched.
