Dear family and friends of Peggy Onstot,
Please accept our deepest condolences and sympathies on the death of Peggy. We are saddened of your loss and know mere words may offer but little comfort at this tragic time, but know that our deepest feelings of compassion lie with you all.
It seems like since I (Jim) moved out of state Ive lost touch a bit, but do think of you all often. Especially those summer days on the farm located just a bit south of Norwalk, which are full of cherished memories of growing up. One of my fondest memories of Peggy was the way she celebrated birthdays. It was a special day and it was to be treated as such for us kids. On that one day you were allowed to have one item (i.e. Doritos, Cheetos, ice cream, even Cool Whip) of your liking to eat until you couldnt eat any more that legacy still stands to this day with me and my wife.
We'll all miss Peggy very much. She was a wonderful person and a great mother. We join in with everyone who knew Peggy in wishing you peace and comfort as you face this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.
We realize it seems like a sad ending of a life, but we have faith that your mom is on a wondrous journey to reap her just rewards. Hers was a good and blessed life and the happiness and joy that she brought to all of us will live on in our memories.
With deepest sympathies,
The Beckers
