Not sure what to say?

Just learned the sad news. The world is a sadder place for the loss of Peggy. I was truely blessed to have had the privilege of knowing Peggy and working for her and George. My brother and I truely count our time with Peggy (and George) at the "Bone" to be some of the best times of our lives. I will never forget her. My children and grand children all know what a special place the Lucky Wishbone is and are aware it was made that way by having Peggy and George there. What lucky people we...

What a gentle, kind and compassionate woman Peggy was. She always had a smile on her face. It was a privilege to be neighbors for many, many years. She will be remembered by all who knew her.

George & Family, Our thoughts are with you and your family. The Family of the late Clare "Newt" Helgelien

George and Family,

You were blessed with the most wonderful wife, best friend and mother a family could ask for and I know you will miss her very much.

I worked at the Lucky Wishbone over 30 years ago and always tell people that it was one of the best places I ever worked. Peggy hosting with her beautiful smile and George socializing at the counter will always be a significant part of my memories. They taught me how to have a great work ethic and were the most hard...

To George, Lorelei, Corky & Pat,
I am saddened to hear of Peggy's passing. She was the great mom of my close high school friend Lorelei, and my boss for a short time in 1990. She was truly a shining star at the Wishbone, and the world is a better place because she was in it.
My thoughts, love and prayers are with you.

My heart goes out to you all, George, her wonderful sweetheart and companion, her children, Patti, Lorilei and Corky, the sparkles of her eyes. Words will never express the spirit of joy we have all been blessed to share with this saint on earth. All of us who have loved and known her through the years have lost a piece of our heart. You will be in our thoughts prayers! Lois

You will be missed. You were a gift from GOD with your smile and love for everyone.I am so blessed to have known you. Love Diana

Dear Corky, Mr. Brown & Family:

How hard it is to say goodbye to a beloved Mother, Wife, Grandmother, Friend. I feel so blessed I was able to spend some time with Mrs. Brown and share some flowers from my late mother's garden with her last summer. We are keeping you all very close in our thoughts, and our prayers, that God strengthens you in these days as you remember and celebrate the amazing life of Mrs. Brown--a true Alaska pioneer. Anchorage won't be the same without her, I...

To George, Corky and the rest of the Brown Family

We share your loss of such a wonderful lady.Peggy will be missed more than words can express. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Our first meal in Anchorage (1968) was at the Wishbone. Who would have guessed that it would result in nearly 30 years of friendship. We all loved working with George and the Wishbone Staff when we had TriAm Accounting.

There isn't a restaurant in Bend that can live up to...
