Peggy Lee Boyd

Peggy Lee Tunnell Welch Boyd was born June 29, 1946 in Tyler, Texas. She was a graduate of Van High School in 1964 and then returned to Van in 2003, living in Dallas the many years in between. She was very involved in Van United Methodist Church, where she helped with the every day operations, sang in the choir and volunteered with Meals on Wheels. She was a member of the Fine Arts Club and enjoyed gardening, both vegetables and flowers.
Peggy met her future husband in high school and they dated after he got out of the Army. Due to distance, they went their separate ways for many years, but found themselves back together in the 80's. She loved to spend time with family, especially picking on Frank.
