With great sadness, we announce that Ms Eleanor Margaret Mary (Peggy) Egan slipped peacefully away at Royal Inland Hospital on May 13, 2016 at the age of 86 years young.
She is survived by her Sister in Law, Valerie Egan, Niece Dana, Great Nephew Renney, 2 Nephews Richard (Ric) (& Helena); Patrick (& Charlene), Great Nephew Jacob (& Aleesha & Peyton) all of Merritt; William (Budge) (& Bev) Winter of Kelowna, B.C.; and a great many friends that she made here over her 12 years in Merritt. She is predeceased by her parents, Richard (Dick) & Irene of Victoria, BC and her brother John (Jack) of Merritt, BC.
The Family invites her friends to join them in a “Celebration of Life” on Thursday, May 19, 2016 at her second home, The Grand Pub & Grill, from 10 am to Noon, to share stories and a light lunch. No alcohol will be served in order that we honour Peggy’s wishes. “Auntie Peg”, as she was known by all, devoted her life to her family & friends – always a caring person with a huge heart & acts of selflessness. She was meticulously thorough in everything she was involved in. A true friend! She was so proud of the work she did for all the residents at McCallum.
Should friends desire, donations may be made to either the Alzheimer Society of BC or PADS (Pacific Assistance Dogs Society).
At this time, our family wishes to express our thanks to the Emergency Staff at the Merritt Hospital as well as the ICU Staff at Royal Inland Hospital during Auntie Peg’s stay there.
Arrangements under the direction of Merritt Funeral Chapel, Merritt, BC.
