Dear Mary Ann,
I did not know your mother well, but remember her, and her lovely smile, from Sacred Heart School. We did have a nice visit earlier this year when I took Communion to Bethesda. She, and all you who love her, are in my prayers.
God’s peace,
Carol Miller

To the family of Peggy Reed,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Peggy. I worked with her at Gibsonburg and know how nice a person she was. May the Lord be with you and provide comfort to you at this time.

I so remember Peggy’s sweet smile and her southern accent. My husband, David, and I enjoyed knowing her. It is amazing how easy it was to recognize her from the obituary photo even though we did not know her at that stage of her life. Sweet lady! Hopefully she and David will renew their friendship in Heaven.
