Was born August 12, 1937, in Windsor, Ontario, and passed away peacefully on November 24th, 2007 at the Vernon Jubilee Hospital, in Vernon, B.C., with her daughters at her side. She will be lovingly remembered by her children, John (Cathey), Peggy (Alan), Mark, and Mary (Martin). Her grandchildren, Spencer, Taylor, Derek, Janet, and Nichol will also miss Grandma Peg’s humour and generosity, as will her family and friends in Windsor, Ontario, Burns Lake and Vernon, B.C.
Peg was the youngest of seven children, and took delight in boasting that because of her small size as an infant, the maternity staff did not think Peg would survive. She proved them wrong, by living 70 full years, enduring life’s challenges and embracing life’s joys until the end. She was a library teacher, a mother, a Windsor city councilor, a grandmother and a friend. She loved games, jazz music, Christmas baking, CBC Comedy, reading and gravy.
I miss you Mom.

I was very sorry to hear about the passing of Aunt Peggy. Aunt Betty informed me in her Christmas card, we really do need to keep in touch. She was one of my favourite aunts - we loved her very much.
It's hard to loose your parents.
Love your cousin
