OMG I worked with Peggy in Chicago, she trained me in operations for TWA. I met my husband Chuck there. We were pretty good friends all those years from 1959. I kept getting her bounced emails and could not figure why . When the phone didn't work I searched and found this. I hope Peggy is at peace with her beloved husband, Jerry. God Bless them both. My heart is heavy with the loss of my dear Friend. Jean and Chuck Poley, Scottsdale, AZ.

Peggy was a joyful friend to my parents, Walter and Elinore Grande, and because of this she became a friend of mine. As Mom would say, "She's a keeper", and she was. Thank you Peggy for always looking after Mom and Dad, no matter what their circumstances. My heartfelt condolences to the family for your loss.
