I am privileged to have known and worked with such a dynamic woman. Her volunteer service to Inova Mount Vernon Hospital through the years made a significant impact on the lives of not only our patients and their families, but the physicians and staff as well.
We will miss her greatly!!

To all that new my Grandmother,
Growing up I always was proud of my Grandmother, whenever there was some kind of disaster I knew that my Tutu (Grandmother) was somehow involved in helping. I was very proud of her and I loved her dearly. The other day I received a beautiful flower arrangement from my work, and it brought back a memory of my dear grandmother Tutu. One of the memories it made me think about is always greeting her at the door and seeing the beautiful flowers that she would bring to my mother or my other grandmother. To my lovely Grumpy I love you so much and am sorry for your loss of our Grandmother we are so grateful for you that you came in to her life, and you were so good to her. Thank you and we are here for you We love you so much. And to my Father, Uncle David and Aunt Anne, I love you all so much I know that Tutu will always be apart of our lives and always in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.
With love, Meghan D'Agostino

I will always remember Peg as a true and charismatic leader. One of her sterling qualities was unconditionally helping others in need.
Peg Dunnigan will truly be missed.
