Peggy was a cherished soul who lived a life full of love, joy, and unforgettable moments. She was deeply admired and respected by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

She was the youngest and last surviving of her siblings, her five brothers she loved: Gilbert, Johnny, Donald, Carl, and Daniel. From an early age, she developed a love for farming, fishing, deer and birds, connecting her deeply to the God's creation around her. Peggy's passion for the outdoors was evident in every aspect of her life, as she cherished moments spent in the serene beauty of nature. In addition to her love for nature, Peggy valued the importance of family and relationships. She held a special place in her heart for her niece/daughter, Debbie Hellmers, and Peggy’s grandchildren Jon and Cheryl. Peggy is survived by many more nieces and nephews such as Joyce Wille, Donnel Kist, Les Wille, Alvin Wille, Marlene Stark, David Wille, Janet Diaz and many greats. Their bonds were unbreakable, and Peggy's nurturing spirit left an incredible mark on their lives. 

Peggy was an active member of the Lincoln E Free Church for now over 78 years, where her faith in God flourished and brought her immense comfort. She took solace in her spirituality and found strength in the community she built around her. Peggy was a Sunday school teacher there for many years. She loved teaching and her favorite song was “This Little light of mine.”

Throughout her life, Peggy had the opportunity to embark on diverse career paths. She worked as a seamstress at Larson Boat Works, where her skills and attention to detail were unparalleled.
