   Peggy was a wonderful, kind lady. She visited Beverly many times while Bev was suffering from cancer herself. I am certain that they are both together in heaven.

   Peggy was a lovely, gracious, kind and caring person. Her former students talk about “Miss Redland” in a way that you know how much they loved and respected her. Her smile lit up a room and her laugh made you join her. So sorry to lose her.

   What a beautiful picture of a true friend – so beautiful on the inside also. Peggy certainly will be in the hearts and memories of all the children she taught with love and respect. Peggy took care of and prayed for so many people in their hour of need. I worked with her and she was a special friend for over 54 years. After her retirement, she moved to River View Villa. She loved her new home and friends. We helped each other survie the COVID isolation times. Gene was just put in the NH and we were so thankful to walk two miles every morning together sharing our problems and reminicing about the good times. Losing her sister so suddenly was really hard on her and I know she is with her and their parents now in Heaven I will always cherish the memories of our times together. My heart and prayers go out to you Earl and family. She so loved each of you and was so proud of her neices and nephews.
   Love and prayers, Anita

   Peggy was truly a wonderful and faithful friend and co-worker. We knew each other over a span of 52 years when I came to Forsyth to teach school. She was an excellent teacher and loved her students dearly. I’m sure they will also fondly remember her.. She was a great supporter of the Forsyth community and always willing to help.
   Her sense of humor and wit was the best I’ve ever known She could make me laugh in the best and worst situations. Peggy’s family and friends meant everything to her. She loved them deeply and would do anything for them. Her sickness and suffering at the end showed her great courage and strong faith in God. Rest in peace my dear sweet friend, your smiling face will be forever greatly missed.

   Earl,
   We have many fond memories of Peggy. She taught my boys in Forsyth schools. Had plenty of fun at VFW parties. My prayers are with you. She was so kind to everyone. I have one of her hand written recipes for “funeral potatoes.”

    We are so sad to hear of Peggy’s passing. When my Mom was sick there wasn’t a week that went by that Peggy would drop by with a beautiful card of encouragement for her. We so appreciated that! Prayers for Earl and her family…
