Peggy and Dean were always good friends to mom and dad (Cork and Estelle). I have always had great admiration for both of them. May God Bless you and your families and give you strength to get through this difficult time.

My heartfelt sympathy is with your family. I have fond memories of being in Monica every summer @ Grandpa & Grandma Simpson's, and being brought up in the Monica church. Peggy was always involved in whatever needed done from serving @ the church for funeral dinners. She was very kind to me. God Bless and may you all find much comfort in His love.
