I worked with Peg in the schools. She was such a calming influence on the students she worked with at school. Moreover, she was a calming, positive influence on the teachers around her. My prayers are with her family.##imported-begin##Patty Nichols##imported-end##
Truly an inspiration - I have thought of her often through the years ( and will continue to do so). I appreciated her words of wisdom to a young teacher who wanted to make a difference just like she did.##imported-begin##Susan Day##imported-end##
To Peg's Family,
Some years ago when I first began teaching in East China, Peg (Toad) was first among the teachers to befriend me. I recall her words of encouragement and her loving kindness. May she find eternal joy with our Lord. My heartfelt condolences to her loving family.##imported-begin##Michele Deluge##imported-end##
Thank You Mrs. Ralston for making your class something I looked forward to, during high school which I otherwise dreaded going to every day and really struggled to get through. You were an amazing woman. My prayers go to her family that they may find comfort in their time of grief.##imported-begin##Jessica Mance Calhoun##imported-end##
Peg was a wonderful person. I will always remember how upbeat and bubbly she was. She was also good-hearted and one of my favorite teachers and coaches. Jim and Peg are great neighbors to my sisters. I will never forget how you were "chocolate kisses" for halloween and Jim was the kiss with almonds. Pam, if you get this message, my heart goes out to you as well. Hug..Hug I know Peg was an awesome step-mom to you.##imported-begin##Anita Wesley##imported-end##
