I first met Miss Peg in March of 2019. She was special, bright, unique, and classy. She was wonderful to experience. Little did I know that would be the only time I got to see her. We stayed with her and Jimmy for a few days and I loved her accent and how she lovingly talked about her family, etc. She would make herself a small bowl of cereal and that would be her meal for most of the day and she had a majestic, radiant smile. She would ask me to buckle her in her seat in the car we took around where they lived. I will cherish that time and I am so sorry for this loss. I wish I had more time with her.
I got to meet the wonderful Miss Peggy the year before last in her gorgeous state of Georgia. I learned a lot from her. She always strived to be beautifully put together. I learned how much she loved her kids. I got to see her eat fried oysters with Jimmy and I wish I had more time with her. She was lovely and a lady on every level. Jimmy, we are here for you and I am so sorry she is gone. I mean that entirely and hope I get to see her classic radiance again one day...
James and I love you all so very much. I was honored to meet her the year before last and I loved hearing her and experience her shared life experiences. James and I are here for you and we are so sorry, Jimmy. Sending love to everyone....
