You are in my thoughts and prayers. Peggy was like a second mother to me. I was best friends with Erin in preschool and elementary school. We were inseparable and many thought we were sisters. Peggy was a wonderful mother who always thought of Erin first.
Erin,
Please know my husband and I are praying for you. May you be comforted and find peace. I am still in Kansas. If you need anything I am here.

Peggy was like an aunt to me, a very fun one at that. She was always so cheerful when I saw her. She loved life and lived it to the fullest. She was a wonder friend, and a terrific mother to Erin. May she rest in peace.
Erin, you're in my prayers and in my heart. May you hold onto your memories of your mother and smile at them.

I am so sorry to hear about Peggy. I remember when Paula and I were in high school she would hang around with us when I would stay overnight. I still think about the Kraft family and what you meant to me when I was growing up. I have had some contact over the years with Peggy, Pam and Paula but not often enough. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the family.

My husband Ken and I want to express our deepest sympathies to Peggy's family. We got to know Peggy, Grant and Erin in 1986 when our daughter Kelly attended day care with Erin at Old Mission. The two girls were inseparable and Peggy became one of my best friends for the next 5 years until we moved to western Kansas. Our two families had much in common and when our second daughter Anna was born, Peggy was like an aunt to her. Peggy was always such a wonderful Mother and her first consideration was always for Erin. I believe that she will always watch over Erin.
We moved away before Peggy and Jim married and only met him a few times on visits back to KC but I know that Peggy was very happy with him and our condolences are certainly with Jim as well.
Dear sweet "Owen", hold on to all the memories of your Mom. You probably don't believe it now but you will be happy again and you want to remember every second you spent with her. She was and incredible woman and I know that you are well on you way to becoming one too.
We finally moved back to Texas and make our home in Boerne just outside of San Antonio. Not too far from my parents home in Comfort, TX where ya'll came on vacation with us one year.
Look us up anytime. You are always welcome!
Kelly is married now and will be in touch.

Jim, Erin, Tootsie, Paula, Pam & Friends,
So sorry to hear the news. How sudden, shocking and tragic. This hits close to home/heart as I had brain aneurysm surgery in July, 1972. I was 30 years old and my kids were 7, 3 and 15 months.
I hate it but I can't make it to the service because of work. There are quite a few on vacation and I have no back up. I hope you know I will be with you in heart.
Peggy was pretty cool. Everytime I would see her, which wasn't often, she would give me the 'BIGGEST' smile and the 'warmest' hug and she was so glad to see as I was her!:)
I know she will rest warmly in the hearts of all those she touched. You see through the years she planted 'little seeds' of sweet memories in your hearts which will give you 'a very colorful garden of smiles'.
Once gain, I hate that I can't be there for/with you.
Take care and much love to you all,
Cece

Peggy was my supervisor at KU Medical Center. I really liked working for her. She really cared about everyone there. And she took the time out to help anyone who needed it whether work or personal. We are all lucky to have had her in our lives. My prayers go out to her and her family!

When one of our fellow employees walked out, Peggy was my guardian angel as I learned the ins and outs of Purchasing. What a huge loss to the university, but mostly to her family and friends. God bless and keep you always in His loving care.

Dear family of Peggy,
I am Aunt Lois married to Rudy Bauer who is deceased and want to offer my condolences to all of you. I know what a hard time this is for all of you but know that Peggy is in a wonderful place with her Lord. My husband died two years ago and Peggy came to his visitation for which I am very grateful. It meant so very much to me to see her there. She has touched so many lives that you didn't even realize. God bless you and be with you during these hard times.
