Ms. Pat I met you and Peg through your wonderful sister Hazel. I am still teaching. I went to see HAzel when she was sick at Peg's house. I will never forget the guidance that your sister gave me. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I know you will really miss Peg because you were so close.
