Peggy died peacefully in her sleep after a short battle with cancer. She was born in Portland, OR and was raised both in OR and Sunnyvale, CA. She was loved by all her knew her.

You always pointed out what I was doing right when I thought of myself otherwise.You will always be alive in me since I will practing everything you have taught me and perhaps like you pass it on.....I will never forget you! To the family of Peggy, I am sorry for your loss and know that we were all blessed to have her in our lives, my sympathies and support.

I lived across the street from where she worked, she was outside often. I never knew her name but she was really friendly and chatty and always had something to say. She loved watching my husband building our trailer. It won't be the same without her familiar charm.
