California Peggy appreciation thread [View all]

she has always been supportive

She chipped in to get my blanket project started when I first came to you guys with an idea


Last week when I told you all about my student committing suicide and the family not being able to afford a funeral she did just what she always does. She chipped in.


The grandmother told me today it was her jump start that allowed the funeral home to agree to help.



the grandmother called me one of God's angels but no it is California Peggy who is the angel


I just want to recognize a lady that quietly espouses the very principles we strive to be.
