Predeceased by her brothers Paul & Timothy Waldron. Gigi was very proud of her 7 grandchildren- Danielle, Matthew (Kaela), Colin (Elle), Joseph, Andrew, Philip, Daniel & many nieces, and nephews.
Peg loved to travel and spend time with friends and family. She had an amazing memory for people, places and names. She was very proud of her Irish roots and made the effort to stay connected with her Irish family. She was always happy to get up and dance a jig or a reel when the Irish music was playing. To this end, Peg organized a trip with Jerry, her children & their families, back to County Mayo, the Waldron's ancestral home on Ireland's western coast, so that all could explore their Irish heritage.
Her memory will be kept close by her family and many friends.
