DEGRACE,
Margaret
French (née
MacLAUCHLAN)
Wolfville
Passed away peacefully at her cottage at Sebim Beach, Villagedale,
Nova Scotia, on July 5, 2007. Peggy was born July 29, 1924 in
Kentville, Nova Scotia, the daughter of the late Roderick and
Marian (FRINK)
MacLAUCHLAN.
She spent her early years with her
family in Rothesay, New Brunswick, Wolfville and Yarmouth, Nova
Scotia. She served in the Royal Canadian Navy as a Wren (Women's
Royal Canadian Naval Service) from 1944 to 1945, working in Halifax,
and in 1945 married Robert F.
DEGRACE of Seattle, Washington.
They made their first home in Seattle and after several years
there, and
in Corvallis, Oregon, they moved back to Canada in
1952. Eventually they settled in Manor Park in Ottawa, where
they lived for thirty years.
Peggy was not only a busy community volunteer (sometimes referred
to as "Mrs. Altar Guild"), she was also a loving and devoted
mother and grandmother, and a caring friend to many. She took
up curling at the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Curling Club
in Ottawa and developed a love for this sport which stayed with
her all her life. She was interested in everything: politics,
sports, community events, a good game of cribbage, and, above
all, the well- being of family and Friends. In 1984 Peggy and
Bob moved to Wolfville, Nova Scotia where they renewed old Friendships
and developed many new ones. In Wolfville, Peggy was a member
of Saint_John's Anglican Church and worked faithfully for the church.
She helped with Meals on Wheels, served on the local hospital
auxiliary, and canvassed for many important charities.
Peggy loved her cottage at Sebim Beach, and nothing pleased her
more than a sunny day, a warm tide, and lots of children and
dogs.
She is survived by her sons John (Judy
SIMMS,)
Prince
George,
British Columbia, and Bill, Bermuda; daughters Barbara
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON
(Jim), Kingston, Ontario, Mary
KEIRSTEAD (Rod), Caledonia, Nova
Scotia, and Anne (Phillip
JACKSON,)
Nelson,
British
Columbia
her sister, Joan
TAPLEY,
Cockeysville,
Maryland; ten grandchildren
several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband,
Bob, and her brother, Jim
MacLAUCHLAN.
A memorial service will be held Tuesday, July 10 at 1: 00 p.m.
at Saint_John's Anglican Church, Wolfville, Reverend Cathy-Lee
Cunningham officiating, assisted by Canon Russell Elliott. Funeral
arrangements are under the care and direction of H.C. Lindsay
Funeral Home, 568 Main Street, Wolfville (902) 542-2151. Online

earth, you can take nothing you have received…but only what you
have given: a full heart enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice
and courage."
