My sincere condolences on Peggy’s passing. As a child, I remember Ronnie and Peggy as close friends of our family. And later, I had the privilege of working with her at Specialties/Mickleberrys. She was always kind, honest and ready to help - a dear friend. If she ever had a bad day, she never let it show. I am sure there is a special place for her in Heaven.
