Peggy L. Prugh, 91, of Elkhart, passed away peacefully Thursday, Dec. 16, 2021, at Creekside Village in Mishawaka.
Peggy was born on Nov. 11, 1930, in Elkhart, to the late Kenneth and Nina T. (Galinet) Yeater. In addition to her parents, an infant son, Robert Kenneth Prugh, two brothers, Cecil and Ron Yeater, and her longtime companion, Bob Havlish, preceded her in death.
Peggy graduated in 1948 from Elkhart High School. She worked as a secretary and administrative assistant for many area businesses and retired from Geocel Corp. Peggy loved Bobby Vinton and had seen him over 187 times in concert.
