Peggy spent the majority of her life as a stay-at-home-mother to her five children. She loved spending time with her family and friends. She was known for her spunky attitude and goofy personality.

Peggy also had a strong love for animals, especially dogs. But above all else, Peggy adored her five children. They were her pride and joy.
