Peg was such a wonderful friend and coworker who would always have a smile and a kind word to share. She was a great role model on how to be a great mom, a valued employee, trusted friend and still find the time to enjoy life.

Peggy helped me find my first apartment in Southie when I was working for the AG's office. She was a beautiful person, inside and out. Rest in peace, Peggy. May your memory be eternal.

Growing up in Southie, I lived on the first floor of 157 "N" Street and Peggy lived on the third floor. Every now and then as youngsters we would go to the Strand theater in Southie to see a movie for about 25 cents. As we got older, we went our separate ways as most people do. But I never forgot Peggy. Her passing brings back a flood of memories of growing up on "N" Street. My deepest sympathy to Peggy's family. I'll always remember her. May she rest in peace.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of Peg she was a great lady. With her big earrings and big personality she was the life of the party and we always had so much fun together. The Kelly family is really going to miss her and it won't be the same without her. She is now in heaven with our dear Colin.

We will remember Peg as someone who loved life, her family and good time. She once had the ticket seller at the Wang running in circles until she was sure that we had the best seats in the house for the Christmas Spectacular and half priced to boot. We will miss you dearly. Love, Jeanne, Dana and Nina

PEGGY WILL ALWAYS BE MY GOOD FRIEND. I WILL MISS HER ALWAYS.
