Tributes
"Dear Peggy, Mary was a very special neighbor and friend and she will be missed. I know she would be happy to know other people will be enjoying all the antiques she and Earl collected and treasured over the years. She always considered herself a keeper of history and believed all her antiques she treasured should be passed on to future generations to enjoy. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and all your family. May God bless you one and all. "
"Dear Peggy, Sorry to hear of Mary's passing. I will always remember Mary for her sense of humor and her stories. "
"Dear Peggy, your Mom - Mary was one very special lady. She loved you and Earl so much. She always loved the simple things in life - taking the long slow route, stopping for picnics, and viewing the lovely things in nature. I don't think a day went by without her mentioning her beloved Peggy. Family was everything to her. Mary was so knowledgeable and taught herself how to do so many things. We loved sitting on her porch and talking over all the good times she had. We will always treasure our time with her. She left many special memories. We will truly miss our special 'spark' in our neighborhood. May the many loving memories of your Mom bring you peace, laughter, and may you be comforted by the love we all had for her. In Sympathy, Brian and Sue Mommaerts"
