Dodie and Mike,our thoughts and prayers are with you and your entire family. The Rosselle Family will truly miss Peggy. We have wonderful memories of meeting up with Peggy and watching Luchi and Jaki greet one another during our doggie walks. Jaki loved to make a mad dash to visit with them both at night time. Peggy was just a sweet dear lady. I'm so grateful she touched our lives.
