This came as a surprise as I had no idea that Peggy was unwell and as a "friend" on Facebook was alerted that it was her birthday. I was so very sorry to see that the day prior, Peggy had passed away. I recalled her older brother Bobby Dixon '67 at KHS and Peggy as being the younger sister. They were very nice classmates and talented also. They didn't live too far from me and were friends with other folks I knew. Just seems so sad that Peggy had to leave us now, almost her birthday and almost our Reunion. Maybe she would have attended. Rest in Eternal Peace dear girl.
