I had the pleasure of knowing Peg for a time when our children were growing up in Frederick. Peg was the personification of gentleness, kindness, and compassion. She exuded an inner strength that was obvious. And always had the courage and strength of her convictions. He person lives on in her legacy: her children. Her passing left a void that is felt by anyone who knew her.

My sincerest condolences to all of 'Peg's' family. She is a bright star, whose light will continue to shine in heaven watching over all her loved ones. Every once in a while a person comes along who makes a big difference because she passed this way, Peg is one of those people. Her passing is truly our loss.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

In 1959, I remember being the Yearbook photographer for 1959 Class. I remember taking the Class of 1960 pictures in the hall of Prospect Hall now known as St. Johns Catholic Prep. She was a very pretty young lady with such a future. During the following years, she lived that future with her family and the Church. May she rest in Peace !
