One of last conversations Peggy and I had was about a word she misspelled in a spelling bee...the conversation led to bowing to someone and I said, did you kowtow...she said with that contagious laugh she had, Paulette how did you remember that??? Oh, she did spell the word as it sound..cowtow and the correct spelling was kowtow. I had lunch with one of our school friends yesterday and I was telling them how things I posted on Facebook there would a comment from Peggy...it shows up in my memories and it blesses my heart.
Have a blessed Christmas....Peggy would want her family to gather to gather and share this most special of days.
May God Bless each of you!!

Peggy was a dear friend thru grade school and high school. She always laughed and had everyone around her laughing. She was a very smart person and a straight "A" student. I will see you someday in heaven and we can laugh some more.

I am so sorry for your loss. I always remember Peggy as the life of the party. She was such a vibrant woman. The last time I saw her was June 30, 2013 and we all had a blast as usual.

I know she will be partying in Heaven.

How sorry I am to have lost a friend that I have had since early childhood, sweet Peggy! I will miss our chats and posts on Facebook but I know you are in the Arms of Jesus...whole again, no more pain or suffering, reunited with her precious Lyle and mother....now guardian angel for her four special guys and their families that she loved with all of her heart. I was proud to call you friend but I know I will see you again one day!
