I´ve known "Miss" Peggy for 55 years and since I was five years old. She was my Sunday School teacher at some point in my childhood at Grace Baptist Church. But I remember her being the church organist all my life there. Although I´ve been gone from there for over
30 years, I would see Her on occasional visits back at GBC. She was always the same dear "Miss" Peggy. She always had a smile and a kind word for you and always made you feel special to her. Well, she was special to me and she will be missed here by all who knew and loved her. May flights of angels sing her to her rest.
