Peggy, I just found out of your passing and am still in shock. Reading through all the memories from all your friends shows that you were the same kind, compassionate, fun-loving friend to each one of us. We worked together many years ago at DCRI, but it seems like yesterday. You always brightened my day and made me laugh so so hard. You treated my boys, Cody and Cole, like they were your own and came to watch them play ball many times at Mangum. I wish that you, Tasha and I had been able to have 1 more lunch together. I will always have a smile on my face every time I think of you. I miss you, Beth Evans. My condolences to Richard, Perry and Pam . I never met them but Peggy always had wonderful words and stories to tell about each of them.

Peggy was my nurse for the HD clinic. She always made me feel good about myself. Her contribution to me and others like me was heartfelt and she will be missed. It takes a very special person to dedicate themselves to helping people but that was the kind of person she was. She was always positive and I always felt better after seeing her. I will miss her very much and to her family I am very sorry for your loss. Peggy was a wonderful person.

I have known Peggy and her fantastic smile since our boys were in preschool, and through their time in elementary school. I am so glad that I was able to get to know her on a more personal level and will miss her dearly. Thank you, Peggy, for always being there to talk with me whether it be over dinner, at one of the kids birthday parties or at the gas station pump on our route home! Thank you for being a friend I could call on in an emergency and for all of your reassurances and laughs along the way. I am just sorry I didn't get one more hug from you when we talked on Friday! My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to her whole family, especially Richard and Perry. She is missed and will be remembered by my family, always. The Gooch Family (Shannon, Eric, Colton and Makayla)

I spoke Peggy 3 years ago regarding my husband with possibly having HD. She guided us through the whole process and encouraging us and just being there. There was one particular day I got to spend with her at Duke hospital while my husband was having an MRI. We talked laughed and had just a good day under the circumstances. We will never forget her and her compassion. God bless her family!!!

- na

From the time our boys started daycare at age one, to Mt. Sylvan and onto Mangum, I could count on Peggy being there with a smile and a big hug. I will miss seeing her in her many layers while the rest of us are sweating, I will miss her helping hand to anyone who was in need, and I will miss her showing up at ANY sports of event to support someone else that she knew was playing. I love Peggy. Her spirit was refreshing, her love was unequaled, and her memory will continue to live in this community. Peggy, you will be missed, you will always be loved. The McCalls: Tony, Amanda, Eli and Noah

Peggy was a wonderful person. Having her as a part of our team at Morreene-Road-Clinic was a true blessing and a privilege. She welcomed all of us with her bright beautiful smile and shared her warmth and knowledge. She cared for our patients like they were her own family, and how much we all loved her. My sincere condolences to her husband and her son Perry, whom she spoke about so dearly and so often "He's a teenager now but I tell him he'll always be my baby". Perry, your mother was very proud of you. Anna Bjornsdottir

I have been in a state of disbelief every since I heard of Peggy's passing. I saw her in the hallway at Duke (on Friday before I learned of her death on Sunday) and of course, I was greeted with a huge hug and plenty of laughter by this lady who was so full of life! I have known Peggy the majority of my life as we grew up together going to the same schools and then on to Duke to work! I just cannot say enough about her! She was such a joy to be around! She was always the same! I never saw Peggy where she didn't have a huge smile on her face. Even if we had not seen each other in a while, it was always just like no time had passed between us! I am going to truly miss the lady! Your family, husband and son are in my thoughts and prayers!

Peggy was a blessing from God to our entire family! She had the God-given ability to make each person with whom she interacted feel special. Six of us were there on the morning of last Friday she worked to participate in the Enroll study, and as always, we were greeted with her infectious smile, big hugs, and lots of questions about what each member of the family was up to. Peggy always remembered details about our children and grandchildren's lives: jobs, college accomplishments, marriages, trips all over the country and the world, and future plans. She celebrated the birth of our first great granddaughter with us, and always asked to see pictures of McKinley and the rest of the family. Each time she saw any of us, it was as if we had just been together the day before. There is no doubt in our minds that Peggy' presence at clinic was a huge part of the peace and comfort we felt there. We will hold her memory in our hearts forever and pray continuously for the family that she loved so dearly. Susanne & Bill Young and Family

I immediately smiled when I realized I didn’t put my name on the post below. I heard Peggy say “Cathy you can’t claim to be my favorite if you are afraid to identify yourself!” Im not afraid Peggy! You will always have a special place in my heart! I love you my friend. Cathy Clayton

Peggy was an angel to so many, and she had a gift for making everyone feel like they were favorite patient, friend or co-worker. She was my nurse in a Parkinson’s research drug study many years ago, and our friendship grew over the years and she would always find the time to see me during my visits to the Morreene Rd. Clinic. She was truly a jewel. She loved her family most of all, and was so proud of Perry. I always thought what a loved and lucky child he was. I saw her the Tuesday before she passed away and she immediately beamed while showing me a picture of Perry with his newest trophy as he was “on his way to put it with ALL his others”! When I would tell her how cute he is, she’d say of course! He looks like his mama! The few times I went and Peggy was not there, I teased her about having the “largest and longest”family reunions of any one I knew. We had lots of laughs and hugs and smiles and she taught me a lot about life in general. I will never forget her showing/teaching me how to do the black girl neck roll and when it was appropriate and when it was not. We were hysterical! I love you Peggy and am positive I was your favorite patient ever. I will miss you forever until we meet again. My visits to Moreene Rd will never be the same. My love and prayers go out to her family, especially to Perry.

I knew Peggy from her work at the movements Disorder Center at Duke. Peggy work with my wife Vickie who had Huntington and she always positive and uplifting and that is very important when dealing with a Huntington Station. She was so proud of her family as we shared stories you could see the joy she got from family. So sad she was beautiful inside and out. Sam Jackson

Deepest sympathy to Mr.Trice-our paths crossed once or twice. My heart goes out to “little Perr-Perr” because that’s what my daughter Kayla calls him. We met Mrs. Peggy and Perry at Mangum Elementary. We always looked for them at EVERY event and they were there-smiles on -Peggy working/volunteering-Perry wit his “boys” playing! And at Kid’s Zone she and I would arrive around the same time to pick up our child and it would be like old Home week!-catching up on school and family news. I love Mrs. Peggy & Perry, too! But, I could count on and guarantee seeing Peggy on Halloween! Perry and his boys’ parents hooked a trailer up to The Ross’s truck and trick-o-treat all up and down Lakewinds Trail! I’d say “Perry where’s your momma”? He’d say”she’s out there with the other parents”. Today, Kayla said “Mrs. Peggy gave us a ride from up the street last Halloween!” My Sista, you brought joy to SO MANY!!! You will be missed and your legacy of a beautiful smile and beautiful presence will live on. Your rest has begun. We’ll see you in the Glory Land. The Hawkins family.

I met Peggy for the first time one day when our boys, then quite young, started playing together at Duke Park. We hit it off immediately - as she did with most people she met. She was a shining light over the years as our boys were at KidsZone and Bull City Little League together. Luke, Jacob, and Timothy are praying for their sweet friend Perry during this difficult time. We will all miss you, Peggy. The Johnsons

Peggy brightened the room with her smile and her laugh. She had a gentle, nurturing spirit and was absolutely devoted to her family. She made us better. Now she sees clearly what we see darkly. Thanks be to God for the time we had with her. Burton Scott Duke Morreene Rd Clinic

I met Peggy through my sister Sharon Foster (she was Baptiste back then) We had soooooo many good times together! The time that sticks out most to me is when we were all sitting in my living room and this guy I had met through one of those phone dating hookups came by & he was a heavy set man & when he came in the first thing we all noticed was his camel toes!!! We laughed for about 10min!! Then my now husband came by later on that evening & the girls asked him if he had camel toes & he said yes! We fell out on the floor, literally!! I will never forget that night. We had a lot of great memories. I will truly miss Peggy, she was a wonderful person.

Our deepest sympathy and comfort to the family. Peggy was one of the best family friends, like a daughter. Bill and Wadeeah

Peggy, when I heard of your passing I kept saying I hope it is not the Peggy I know. Our night shift was the best, we laughed so much you and Jackie made me feel like it was exciting to come to work. I can still hear you say "rut row" as if it was yesterday. I am praying for your family, I know they will miss you just as much as I do. God knew it was your time but you will be greatly miss. Until we meet again. Love Doretha

Peggy, my tall friend! Words can't even describe what everyone who knew you is going through right now. I am so glad that I had the privilege to know you! I am going to miss talking with you, your smile and how much you ADORED Perry! Until we see each other again. Love Leigh Anne

- na

Wow Peggy, can't believe you were called so soon. Your smile, laugh, and the dancing we did on Happy Friday will never be forgotten. Nor will your hard working, positive attitude to help someone in need even when it wasn't one of your patients and all the times you would ask me if I wanted you to go get someone to help up front. Or when you would say..."I'm skating by on 2 skates," next it was on one skate. Or you would break down and get your coke-a-cola fix. Just how much you cared about the people you took care of and worked with. Just your whole being will be so missed, stories about "back in the day", your family and your son, most of all. Your family has every reason to be proud of the person and role model you have been to everyone who knew you. We're gonna get some big hoop earrings, have a prayer and go out to eat at one of your favorite restaurants! But I'm not going to go out walking in this heat! Look down on everyone you know and throw a smile at us and your peace!
