TRUSCOTT,
Peggy (née
SAULT)
Peggy lived her life as a beautiful, special person who brought
joy, love and light to everyone she touched. Her kindness, compassion
and overwhelming energy to help others was ever present from
her days as a nurse at St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto Western
Hospital and the Victorian Order of Nurses, to her work as a
nursing instructor at Centennial College and as a public health
nurse for the City of Toronto. A wife, a mother, a daughter,
a sister and a wonderful friend. Peggy lived courageously with
ovarian cancer for the last four years, her strength, positive
outlook and love of life never wavering. Peggy died peacefully
at home, on May 25th, 2003, wrapped in the love of her husband
and best friend Bruce and her daughters - Sarah, Rebecca and
Martha and son-in-law Josh
KESTER.
