You are the most loving and caring person I will ever know. You will never be forgotten because the love and happiness you brought to so many will never fade.
” Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.”
Love always, your nephew, Andrew
Peggy, you’ve touched my heart, life is so unfair! You will be missed!
