Peggy had a passion for music and there was no one she loved singing with more than Anna Jo Sanders as they performed all over the Northern Neck and you certainly have to reflect on hearing her on the radio during the Christmas season joyously singing, "Happy Holidays".
She also was a faithful daily patron of Lee's Restaurant. She adored all of the staff and considered them part of her family.
Peggy will be greatly missed by her cherished family and all that knew her. She never met a stranger and always had a smile on her face.
