Bryan, when I saw you on Wednesday, it seemed like you knew that Peggy was about to leave this earth. I wish I had called you yesterday, but it slipped my mind. I know how bad you feel but have peace that she is feeling no pain and is watching over you now and forever. Love to you and your family...thomas
