I loved Peggy dearly. She was one of my best friends. She could always make me laugh and could cheer me up when I felt down. She was the kind of friend that truly cared about others instead of self. She was a treasure.

Peggy was one of my best friends at CSHS. She was so funny and made us all laugh. She was always caring and a wonderful friend to have. I have many great memories of our time together. Much love and sympathy to her family.
