Born on January 22, 1945, in Rocky Mount, Virginia, Peggy lived a life that filled the hearts of many, radiating love, warmth, and kindness.

Peggy's journey began as the beloved daughter of Marie M. Crowe and Nelson E. Crowe, who instilled in her the values of family and compassion. Throughout her life, she embraced these values wholeheartedly, which became the essence of her character. She first experienced love when she met Roger L.

As a dedicated stay-at-home mom, she filled her days with the laughter and joys of raising her children, often seen at baseball and football practices or cheering at cheerleading events. Eventually, Peggy ventured into the workforce, proudly spending 15 years at Toys R Us and later working at Standard Auto, but her nurturing spirit never wavered.

Their shared laughter and camaraderie will be cherished forever.
