She enjoyed Swimnastics with her group, the “Mermaids.” The Mermaids may no longer be swimming together but still enjoy weekly coffee together. Thanks to the Patel’s of Manhattan Bagel for the years of allowing the Mermaids to meet and enjoy each other’s company. Peg enjoyed knitting, painting, puzzles, and was a voracious reader.
A special thanks to Foulk Living and their wonderful caring staff.
