Aunt Peggy lived with us several times throughout my life. My dad, Charles Parrish, was the eldest. He had 3 sisters, Peggy was the closest one to dad...in age & presence. She lived with us several times, esp. when dad was deployed. A beautiful person inside and out. Being that she was a Parrish, she was also not shy, or quiet. I'm one too, and proud of it.
