She was preceded in death by her husband, Jim; her parents; sister, Sandy Hendrick; and best friend, Kathy Tolan. Peggy spent many days giving back to friends and family. You could always count on her to leave a lasting impression.  She befriended every person who crossed her path.  If you weren’t laughing with her, you were usually laughing at her.
