Peggy L. Roberts

I spoke with Peggy at the beginning of my foster care journey. We had grown to care about a child that had come into the foster care system and wanted more information about becoming certified. She was so encouraging and kind at a stressful and confusing time in our journey. I always thought I would call her to tell her the next part of our story and thank her for her part in it. She had a special way about her that will be missed!
Sincerely,

Carol Regli

Peggy was such an important person in our lives. She was the social worker that helped us through the adoption of our son and daughter. I will always remember her sitting on my couch and laughing at Kevin's antics. He only wanted to drink milk and not eat. She told him he'd turn into a cow. From that beginning, 13 years ago, Peggy was always available and a great person. She always took the time to chat with us and ask after our family any time we ran into her. I cannot imagine not...

To the family of Peggy Roberts,
We express our heartfelt sympathy for the loss of such a wonderful woman. We have only been a foster family for 3 short years, but are very thankful to have had Peggy in our corner whenever we needed her support. She always returned our calls quickly and didn't stop until we were able to find solutions to our problems. We will miss her support and expertise. Thank you Peggy for the role you have played in our lives
Sincerely, The David Trumbo Family

We have known Peggy for many of the 35 years that we have been foster parents. We have seen social workers come and go, good and bad. Peggy was one of the best. She had a rare combination of love, knowledge and spirit. It is a combination that made for a wonderful Foster Care Liason.
When we first met Peggy, we thought of her as tactless, but later found that we were wrong, it was her unserving honesty. She let you know right where she stood and what she thought was right or wrong. ...

Aunt Peggy was a wonderful aunty, she loved us unconditionally. She cried with us in time of hardship and laughed with us in time of joy. It was fun to hang out with her, watch TV together, help her to decorate the house for the Holidays and then put them down, go to Wal-Mart, have dinner on Fridays. We will miss her forever.

You can thank God for so many things but thank God for Peggy and how she touched our lives.

Peggy was such a special woman, someone who was born with the heart of a social worker -- the college degree was just a formality. Her level of caring and compassion always shone through, even when she was dealing with a difficult issue. In the time I have known and had the honor of working with Peggy, I have felt that if I ever needed anyone to stand in my corner and fight for me, I would choose Peggy. The influence she had on the lives of so many children and families cannot be measured....

My heart is deeply saddened by the great loss of Peggy, who is now in the company of Our Creator. My deepest sympathy is felt for Peggy's family, and the huge number of others who love her. Approximately 12 years ago, we were recruited as foster parents for a specific child, at the child's request. Peggy practically held my hand and never became annoyed as I constantly called her to solve problems and learn how to care for our foster child. As a result of Peggy's constant, expert guidance...

We will always remember Peggy for the love she showed to Andy and Stephen. She was a Godly example of a wife and mother and we admired her deeply for that. Although we had lost touch over the years we have always considered Andy and Peggy friends. Peggy was always compassionate and patient towards others, and her love of children was expressed in many ways. Our memories of her holding, comforting, and praying over countless babies on Sunday mornings so Mommies and Daddies could enjoy...
