I too was sustained and supported in my work at the Mental Health Complex by Peg's presence and wisdom. I also recall her wit: when I inquired about a fellow employee I didn't yet know, Peg responded dryly "she has her tongue sharpened the same place I do."

I want to add that I am sorry for the families loss. I last saw Peg at a get together about eight years ago.

I also worked with Peg at MCMHC and she managed in a way that made a difficult job much smoother and helpful to our patients.

I worked with Peg for many years at Milwaukee Cpunty Behavioral Health--I admired and respected her, as did we all, for her professionalism. It is consoling and inspiring to hear others laud her, as many of you already have.

Peg somehow seemed to be able to always perfectly balance leading and managing. She made that seem so effortless. She brought out the best in all of us. I am so sorry for your loss.

Peg supported me in my 31 years at the MHC. The trust and respect and the ability to see the good in a person as a most important attribute shaped my goal to pass these traits onto others. . I have saved a letter she wrote to me on her personnel stationary encouraging to go in some difficult circumstances. She was a very significant motivator for me to treat people with respect and use my talents to pass it on and put others first. I am sorry for the loss of your mother.

To Peg's family and friends:
I am a former co-worker of Peg's at MCBHC. Yesterday when I learned of her death, I spoke with a friend of mine who was a patient there over 25 years ago. She remembered Peg by first name and recognized her picture. She told me how much Peg helped her at a time of great agitation and distress, just by sitting with her, listening and responding in a kind, compassionate and understanding way. Years later she remains grateful for those healing moments. I am sure there are many others who were helped by Peg's presence.
We are saddened by your losses, and grateful that we had the experience of knowing Peg Winslow.

In the 1980's, I had the honor of working with Peg at the Milwaukee County Mental Health Complex. She was a most professional and compassionate, administrative nurse attentive to the needs of patients, staff, other nurses, doctors, and all with whom she dealt. Our world there was blessed by her presence.
For your work, for your goodness -Thank you, Peg

We smile as we look at the posted picture of Peg and Tom. When we think of Peg, we know how she put one hand in Tom's and the other in the Lord's....and she never let go of either. May you be comforted by the love and prayers of all who love them and you. God Bless!

I had the privilege of helping Peg as she created and maintained the beautiful flower gardens at Nashotah House. Her garden creations were a joy to behold, and appreciated by all who walked past them daily.
Tom and Peg Winslow.
