While I've never met Peggy, I certainly feel as if I know her well from all the times Pam and I have spoken of her family. I had the great pleasure of meeting Ann several times when she was still able to travel. Each and every conversation was a joy. Pam and Peggy, please accept my heartfelt sympathy as you mourn your mom but celebrate her life. We'll all meet again! Much love!

It's Ann's SMILE that I remember! Always, she had a smile on, even when she mostly had to travel in a wheelchair. And from the twinkle in those eyes, you just knew SOMEthing was going on behind them!
Peace to Peggy & Pam and your families. Ann got her Easter early, this year.

Peggy and family, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Fish. I always enjoyed her so much at both the Christopher Center and the Nursing Center at Our Lady of Peace. Peggy, you were such a loving and devoted daughter. Your mother was so lucky to have you. My sincerest condolences to you all.

Mom was an excellent person to go to for advice. She helped me as a child, and as an adult.
Love you Mom
