Aunt Peggy was a good aunt and sister to are mother, even though I haven’t seen her in a long time I have thought and prayed for her often she will be missed by everyone who knew her.

I loved my wonderful Aunt Peggy. She “always” called me Pattycakes!

Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to meet Peggy – but I can tell what kind of a person she was as a woman and as a mother by the daughter she raised, Linda Carrington Taylor. She’s left a good legacy there and proof of a life well-lived! Wishing Linda and the rest of Peggy’s family peace and comfort knowing they had an accomplished Mom!
