We had the privilege to meet Peggy just 2 weeks ago, when she graciously welcomed my sister and me into her home, and answered some questions we had about my grandfather. Her smile touched your soul...what an elegant lady. I know she will be dearly missed by all who knew her. Denis Connell's granddaughter, Kathy.
