CURRENT CELEBRATIONS

Peggy Humphrey

Peggy was the coolest mother and grandmother: the unofficial mom and grandmom to half of Bridgeport. She was the kind of grandmother who played Paper Mario and Mario 64, with the grands and on her own; hands down one of the best gamers around. Peggy made sure that all her kids and grandkids received individual attention even if it meant preparing multiple breakfasts, lunches, and dinners; she would do it all. Of course, her cooking was always top shelf; she made the best comfort foods (meatloaf, chicken and dumplings and pancakes). She had a creative side making art, painting, and crocheting. She loved older country music and singing nursery rhymes to her grands. Peggy started working as a waitress at the Flight Deck Diner and wound up owning it for several years. Relaxing times found her enjoying a little Price is Right and Lifetime movies.
She’d meet and marry a handsome customer at the diner, the late Fred. She is survived by her grandson, Zachary Folker, her “adopted” grandkids, Rachel, Lizzie, Alex, Emma, and Christian and was pre-deceased by her daughter, Sheila Owen.
Family will celebrate 85 great years privately.
