Mrs. Peggy was ... so many adjectives could be inserted to describe her but they all fall short. "Salt of the Earth" is how I describe women I really admire. They'll do anything for you! Mrs. Peggy was that and so much more. Women who know her agree on this ... we all want to be just like her when we grow up! Love to all who are left here and wondering how to live in a world without her. We'll see her soon. Kay Hendrix
