In her later years, Peggy enjoyed spending time with family, sewing, working with her daughters at their pet daycare business and always found time for her grandchildren who were the lights of her life. She attended Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Chireno. After losing her granddaughter Kenadee in 2018, Peggy dedicated her life to sharing kindness, often donating homemade and hand-sewn gifts. She was quite proud of her daughters’ and grandson’s accomplishments, supporting their every endeavors.

The family extends special thanks to the doctors and nurses of Houston Methodist Hospital, Dr. Bramham Reddy of Lufkin, Broussard’s Mortuary, and Jim and Hope Broussard.
