She later resided in Scotch Plains and Westfield, NJ, moving to the Flemington area in 1974. Peggy was a proud graduate of the Duke University School of Nursing, earning her BSRN in 1961. Upon graduation, she worked as a registered nurse until starting her family.

Later, she was a 20-year Director of the Briteside Adult Day Care Center, in Flemington, and helped open their second location in Lebanon, NJ. Peggy was a devoted, adoring wife; a gifted, loving mother; an engaged, proud grandmother, and a deeply loyal friend. Peggy led life by example with her positivity, generosity, and wit. She played golf, was a talented gardener, a great cook, a world traveler, and a passionate fan of Duke Basketball–as well as any activity or interest her children and grandchildren pursued. Peggy lived a life driven by service to others, including but not limited to: her family, her friends, her patients, her church, her community, and pretty much everyone she met. She had a talent for sharing her love and making everyone feel special. She was a member, Deacon and Elder of the Flemington Presbyterian Church where she also served as a Stephen Minister. In addition, she was a volunteer for Meals on Wheels, served on the Medication Review Board at the Hunterdon Developmental Center, and was a volunteer therapist at the Child Development Center of Hunterdon Medical Center.
