Mrs. Peggy Dean Daniel Tutterow, 93, of Deadmon Road, Mocksville, passed away on Friday, July 12, 2024, at Somerset Court of Mocksville.
She was born December 1, 1930, in Davie County, to the late Silas Dulin and Edith Ann “Annie” Martin Daniel and was the youngest of eleven children. Peggy was a 1948 graduate of Cooleemee High School and attended Salisbury Business College. She retired from Sara Lee Corporation Hanes Hosiery in 1993, after 36 years of service. Peggy became a member of Concord United Methodist Church in Mocksville in 1940, where she had been the pianist for more than 60 years. For the past 10 years she attended the First Baptist Church of Salisbury, NC, where she made many new friendships with people who loved her and deeply cared for her. She was blessed.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Joe Nelson “J.N.” Tutterow on June 4, 1996; six brothers, Amos, Raymond, Eustace “Hoot”, Samuel, Mike, and Franklin Daniel; four sisters, Margaret D. Seamon, Belle D. Boger, Minnie D. Foster, and Dot D. Walker.
Survivors include three sons: Nelson Tutterow (Pat) of Simpsonville, SC; Craig Tutterow (Dawn) of Rome, GA; and Jeff Tutterow (Sheila) of Mocksville, NC. Also surviving are five grandchildren: Stephanie Stansell (Bo) of Simpsonville, SC; Joshua Tutterow (Elizabeth) of Charleston, SC; Travis Tutterow of Travelers Rest, SC; Benjamin Tutterow (Rachel) of Winterville, NC and Nathaniel Tutterow of Mocksville, NC; four great-grandchildren; Ryan and Jackson Stansell of Simpsonville, SC, and Julian and Thea Mae Tutterow of Charleston, SC, and her little dog Weston Dandy Tutterow, whom she loved with all of her heart.
Peggy was a one-of-a-kind treasure and always greeted you with a smile. She was a people person and never met a stranger. She never thought of herself as old but remained forever young at heart and had quite a sense of humor.
When she was younger, she loved painting, bottle-digging with her sisters, craft shows, cross stitching, ceramics, and antiquing. She loved her home as she grew older and looked forward to family get-togethers, especially birthday parties and Christmas.
Peggy was the family matriarch and will be missed dearly.
The Tutterow family wishes to thank Somerset Court of Mocksville and Medi Home Health and Hospice of Thomasville for the love and care given to Peggy during her time at Somerset. She was truly blessed.
Peggy's Homegoing service will be held at 3 p.m., Sunday, July 21, 2024, at Lambert Funeral Chapel, with the Dr. Rev. Kenneth Lance officiating. The family invites friends to visit with them at the funeral home one hour prior to the service. Committal Service will follow at Concord United Methodist Church Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, please consider memorials to: Medi Home Health and Hospice of Thomasville NC, 1007 Lexington Avenue, Thomasville NC 27360.
