During her life she worked at Jeannette Glass for many years and when that closed she was a newspaper courier.  Many years later she worked for Excela Health as a medical courier.  We want to thank the staff at St. Anne's for all the care and support they provided over the past several years for Peggy.  Friends will be received Thursday from 2-4 and 6-8 PM in the Mason-Gelder Funeral Home Inc. 201 N.
