Peggy was fun to be around. I worked with her at IRS in Omaha before transferring to Nashville. She always had time to give instructions and make me laugh. I will miss all of her stories; remember when her dogs locked her out of her own car??? Look to God for comfort during these difficult times.
Peggy will be missed. I have always thanked Peggy for helping me be successful at IRS. While, we had great discussions about politics or joining the union, she helped in many ways as a Revenue officer. Peggy, was very good to my sister Mary Ruth, before she passed away, as they worked well together. I know her family and friends will miss her. RIP
My best friend for 60+ years. She was sooo much fun and had zest for life. Truly brilliant and the best Mom and Grandma ever.
When I count my blessings (Peggy), I count them twice.
Ciaso forever 😜,

One of the best people I knew. Not just because I was so fortunate to work with her for over 30 years, but as a good friend. Her family and friends will surely miss her. God bless you Peggy. Thank you for your all your support for me and I know my Kathy is going to welcome you to heaven.🙏🙏
I had the honor and pleasure to have worked with Peggy for several years. Her smile, sense of humor and her ability to make all around her feel welcome will be missed.
I am sad and shocked to learn of Peggy’s passing. We were good good friends at Omaha IRS. You have my sincere sympathy.
