Peggy Lauren Morrow was a loving sister, proud aunt, loyal co-worker, supportive boss, tireless business partner and loving friend. She was so creative, intelligent and hardworking and those attributes never changed in spite of the ravages of Parkinson's, which struck her in her 50s. She was such an inspiration with her indomitable spirit and her determination not to complain but instead to keep working, until she died. She was a woman of diverse interests, from creating mosaics to collecting beautiful paperweights to writing marketing materials, newsletters and resumes. She had a passion for genealogy which brought her into contact with people around the US and the world.
I am glad that her suffering has ended. But oh, how I will miss dear Peggy. Rest in eternal peace my friend.
