Hello Burns& Powell family.. I will always Remember Peggy The one thing I will share Is when I was at Saint Aunt having my first child in October 1974 She came in my room and I did her hair for her... I think she was going somewhere that evening and I told her to go get a comb And some hairspray and I would fix it for... We shut the door at my room and did it and had fun talking and laughing...

Hello Maureen, i just read about your mothers passing. Remembering her at the old St. Ann's Brydon Rd. And then Westerville. She was always so kind to me as as a pharma rep. Helped me with the ob-gyn residents with my products. And remembering all your kindness when you worked for Dr. Jerry Girardi in Worthinton in the 90's. God bless, Brian Wilcox, Chicago,Illinois. Former Ortho Pharma Rep.

Dear family of Peggy Burns, I met Peggy when she was vacationing in Venice, Florida from 1997 to 2010. She was a rare gem, and we shared fun times. Her life was not easy, but still she smiled. That is a virtue in itself.

Joe and family, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Jane, David and Sara Crombie

Condolences to the family whom I have great memories of the time we shared in 1957-58 while at OSU. She and Bill were a unique pair, lovely children, and made my year. May she Rest In Peace. Bill O'Rourke Jr.

May the God of all comfort strengthen your entire family and may you also be comforted by the scriptures found at Psalms 116:15

Pegs family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have known your Mom for so many years. Part of the old St Ann's family. It was a delight to run into her at different occasions . Even seeing her as a patient in the hospital was a good thing for me. She could brighten up anyone's day. The last time I saw her was , of all places. At Culver's. She was there with her daughter and friends. Totaling enjoying her burger. We caught up on old friends and she always asked about my family. Always loved...
