    We are so sorry for your loss. May God comfort you.

  3. So sorry to hear about Aunt Novella. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time.

  4. Mrs. Pegg was a wonderful person and we loved living next door to her. She was always “Grandma Pegg” to us and she will be deeply missed.

  5. Coe Ann, it has been years since we have seen each other and while that saddens me I know that we all have a different life to lead. I remember my mom talking about your mother and sharing memories of things they had been involved in. Losing a parent is one of the hardest things you will ever do in life. God can and will give you comfort during this difficult time. I pray for His guidance and comfort. Try to reflect on the memories you have because that helped me after the loss of both of my parents.

  6. So very sorry for your loss,remembering you in prayer. May God give you comfort during this difficult time.

  7. We are so sorry for your loss. Mrs. Pegg was a very dear friend to our family, and we have missed her living next door the past few years. Keeping all of the family in our prayers.
