My sincere condolences to the family and friends of Stephanie Peggins. I worked with Stephanie at BankBoston back in the late 1990s. She was bright, hard working, and so much fun to be with. I have many photographs of the fun events and volunteer activities that we particpated in at the bank. No doubt, heaven has welcomed her with joy. I hope that your memories of this wonderful and accomplished woman will ease your sorrow.

Dear Priscilla & Frank and Family,

I'm deeply sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter. She certainly wore the Love of God within her smile and must have touched the lives of all those who were blessed to have known her.

She's in the hands of our Lord now, and as much as we grieve at her passing, we will all see her again soon.

In His Love,

I sat next to Stephanie for years at our third-Monday-of-the-month Board meetings, and her peaceful demeanor and wry sense of humor truly kept me sane! She had such a gentle soul. I, and many others where she lived, will miss her very, very much. Please know that my prayers — our prayers — accompany Steph on her journey homeward, as well as her beloved family in this time of such profound grief. Godspeed kiddo! See you again soon!

Stephanie's charisma will truly be missed. I am so blessed for having had the opportunity to spend so many wonderful times with her throughout the years of hanging at the Peggins residence laughing, cutting up, talking about ourselves, reminiscing about our childhood, family, friends, relationships and work over awesome cocktails and good food until we were too tired to go home. Birthdays, holidays, reunions, and girls night will never be the same! I will miss her! May remembering Stephanie's gentle soul, beautiful smile and good-humor bring comfort and support to my family……

Love Toni, BJ, Malcolm
