Peggy and Tom, better know as Bones and Moose, married November 15, 1957 in Austin, TX. Peggy worked for many years as an assistant to Dr. Arthur Haws for his veterinary practice in Austin, an administrative clerk for Central Freight lines, and as the church custodian at Bristol Baptist Church where she was a member for many years. She loved bowling, playing cards and dominoes with family and friends. She enjoyed gardening, sewing, and feeding people where most meals included her amazing homemade gravy and hot fudge cake. She was never afraid to tackle any home project or offer advice on how you should do your own. Peggy loved Jesus and was always ready to share Him with anyone she walked past. We will miss her forever and be eternally grateful for the way she loved each of us that she called her own.
