Peggy’s passing is a huge loss to our city and county. She was such a friend to so many throughout her life, and her zest for life was contagious to everyone she met. What a wonderful legacy she has left for her family and friends. I am lucky to have called her my friend. God bless all of her family now and in the days to come.

A.C. and the Moore family,
We were sad to learn that you lost your precious Peggy. When we came to Fayetteville and knew no one, Peggy was one of the people who reached out to us in such a kind, friendly, and caring way. There are those who will reach out only to the people they have known all their lives, but Peggy took the time to welcome two newcomers in such and friendly and caring way. This one act of kindness speaks volumes about the type of lady your beloved Peggy was and how she lived her live.

A.C. & family:
How much we appreciated the love and care Peggy extended to Chris and Martha Patrick(our parents). They loved her and always looked forward to her coming. She was comforting to them as well as “Miss WEKR” as she always brought them the latest news & what was happening in the community. Not only was she a care-taker but entertainment as well. She will be missed.
Dick & Martha Farrar

AC, Mark and David,
I am incapable of expressing what Peggy’s friendship has meant these 75+ years. I loved her and she will always be in my memory as a regal lady. My mobility will keep me from attending the graveside service. Please know I will be thinking about you guys.

Your sweet and beautiful Peggy was special to so many and while you will miss her terribly, the knowledge that this separation from her is only temporary is such a blessing.
