I have such happy memories of knowing Peggy at St. Michael's in Issaquah. She worked tirelessly on our library and was always ready to help anyone. My late husband Fr. John Schaeffer was very impressed with her abilities and we were both impressed with her gracious and kind personality.

I remember dear Peggy well as she had been a member of St. Michael's church in Issaquah, Wa. My husband, now deceased, The Rev. John Schaeffer enjoyed working with Peggy when their paths would cross at D. House. She was a lovely and very knowledgeable lady. I know she'll be greatly missed by her family and all who were lucky enough to know her.
