She was a member of Victory Temple and in her younger years had attended Pine Grove Baptist Church and Concord Tabernacle. Peggy enjoyed participating in the Adult Senior programs at First Assembly and she formerly attended Red Hat Society meetings which she also enjoyed. She loved children and even though she never was able to have any of her own, she was proud that she had a hand in helping to raise her goddaughter, Lori Joyner, whom she loved and claimed as her own.
She was very proud of her nieces and cherished the time she spent with them. She was a true servant and loved the Lord, a faithful friend, and most of all a beautiful person inside and out.
