Dear Peggy and Charles,
Your mother was a most special aunt. I loved her dearly from the time I was a little girl and she would visit with us on some weekends. How we looked forward to those cheerful visits.
She was also special to all she met throughout her life. She had a zest for living that the rest of us never achieved. We will miss her.

My heart was saddened to read of Peggy's passing. She and my MOM shared many happy moments and laughs together. Peggy was truly a special person and will be missed greatly. Please know that you and the family are in our prayers and if there is anything we can do for you please let us know.
Paulette and Bob Hudgins

It's difficult to envision a world without Peg's humor ! Distance and health issues have kept us apart in recent years, but we have wonderful, wonderful memories of her. We send love and sympathy to all the famiy.

To the family of Peggy Ragland: I am so sorry to hear that your mother has passed away. Mary Frances sent me word. Peggy and my mother were 2nd cousins--my mother was Mary McNeil Epperly. Peggy and Mama were also step-1st cousins. Charles Emmett Boone and my grandfather (Thomas Benton McNeil) were stepbrothers. I think I have that right. I don't think I ever met Peggy, but her obituary describes a vibrant loving woman. I am sorry for your loss.
Clara Epperly Martin (Tibby)

My thoughts and prayers are with your family. May you find strength and peace in this time of great sorrow.

Charlie, I can not think of any words to express the pain and grief that you must feel with the loss of your mother but my prayers are with you. JO
