During her time there, she proudly twirled with the Prime Time Twirlers, participating in numerous events and competitions that brought her great joy.
A gifted artist, Peggy painted many pieces and lovingly crafted pine needle baskets for friends and family. She found happiness in staying busy, whether creating new crafts, tending to her landscaping, or adding beauty to her home in her own thoughtful way.
Her creativity, energy, and generous spirit touched everyone who knew her.
