Not sure what to say?

Ms. Eckerstrom was my advisor on the El Guerrero 1974-75 (I usually would write about sports)... A kind teacher who always had time for her students and staff...sorry to hear of her passing.

I was a student of hers at Santa Rita High School. She was always so kind. I had the pleasure of sitting next to her at a production of The Taming of the Shrew, at the U of A. Mrs. Eckerstrom didn´t treat me as a student that evening, but as a friend of the Arts as she spoke to me between acts. That experience and kindness by her is a memory I cherish. Blessings to your family.

Kay and I wish to express sincere admiration for such a kind, gentle, loving soul. Peggy was a fine colleague, always ready to help everyone in the English department of Pueblo High School. Our very best to Peter and Paul, her outstanding sons. Kay and Jerry Helm

I lived across the street from Peggy for 5 years, she was a force. She often told me stories of her life, from her time in Nome, her college years, her travels and much about Don and her sons Peter and Paul, but of course there was her grandchildren which she spoke of with glee. We will miss Peggy greatly, she was a beautiful soul.
