Peggy graduated from West High School in Cleveland, Ohio, class of 1961. She worked in real estate for many years and finished her career in the mortgage lending business, before retiring in 2008.

28 Jul 2022Peggy was such a light, my dad, Jack Shue and many others enjoyed Hickory Hollow. We were all like family. Peggy was in the mortgage business as I was at the time. We shared many a days at the pool. She will be missed terribly. She was like a second mom to me. My heart goes out to the family and her friends in this difficult time.
