It was our pleasure to know Peggy when we were working with her and Dick on the CHCofC. She was always so optimistic, helpful, and welcoming….a joy to serve with. Tom visited her site on Guemes Island end of May and prayed for her and for Dick at this time of his terrible loss; Earl and Alice joined our prayers to his. Sincerely,
Peggy was a warm, wonderful member of our support group. We miss her. Please accept my deepest condolences.
Such a sad day for us all! Peggy was so loved by her
family. May beautiful memories of your togetherness bring you peace and comfort.
Peggy was a beautiful, gracious lady and I will always remember her.
I feel lucky to have known Peggy, even though it was only for a short time. She was a lovely and caring person and I will miss her. With deepest sympathy,
