During my tenure with the City of Canton, I admired the love, devotion and family strength shown throughout the struggles of Peggy's illness. God has taken her to a special place in peace and without pain. Although you live on and the pain of loss is fresh, know that the love you have all shared will always be there to heal the heart. Time will heal a certain portion of the hurt, but know that Peggy is always with you.
From our family to yours,
The Serrands
She was a special lady and will be sadly missed.
May God give you comfort at this time. My prayers
are with all of you.
