I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Miss Peggy. She and Mr. Paul , Terry, Linda, Mitch, and Miranda were always more like family than neighbors to us. When the tornado destroyed our home and we bought the farm, l missed ya'll more than the house. She was such a sweet person, always smiling and every time l saw her, she would ask if I " still had all those big, pretty dogs ," and give me a hug. To me, she was like having a beloved aunt. Please know Terry , that you, Linda, Brandi, Mitch, and Miranda are in my thoughts and prayers. May God comfort all of you at this sad time. Love you all,
