Pauline and I have fond memories of Aunt Peggy when we popped in to visit at her Baker Street home. Aunt Peggy was a wonderful loving lady.

I remember Aunt Peggy as a very warm caring lady. Peggy (I never knew her real name) was very kind to Dad, John Simmons and he would often go up to stay. They used to enjoy outing's together (as long as Dad drove. I think it was the only fault he mentioned of Aunt Peggy's.) I always felt very welcomed when I popped in. I always remember her and Uncle Bernard's lovely tidy sunny house and beautiful veggie garden. We were a very blessed family with such caring parents from all of the family members. Sorry I couldn't be there to farewell a lovely Lady. Rosemary

Aunt Peggy's memory for me is of a kind gentle woman whose faith was very evident in all aspects of her life. Her life reflects so well as the last of our wonderful aunts and uncles, as people of great strength and love. Aunt Peggy's loving attributes are so evident in particular in her dear children Bernadette and Matt and their families. Love Margaret
