Priscilla was a devoted mother to Mary Beth Peacock and Amy (Peacock) Towner. She cherished her seven grandchildren, Melissa, Samantha, Jessica, Jeremy, Nicholas, Emily and Ryan and her nine great grandchildren Jaydon, Skye, Ollie, Peter, Emily, Maeve, Lillian, Meliha and Elizabeth. She worked as a bookkeeper for many years but was considered a cherished childcare provider for nearly 30 years, sharing her love with generations of young children.

Priscilla was a gifted crafter and took special joy in creating her award-winning quilts and knitting projects. She enjoyed solving puzzles with Jack. She was known for her homemade pies on special occasions and had a passion for cruising. She took pleasure in her friends and bible study, and was proud of her flashy, fancy fingernails!
