Life story

Peggy Hilton, loving wife, mother of two children and grandmother of three.

Peggy was born on March 30, 1950 in Staten Island, NY. She was a NYC Board of Education teacher for over 25 years where she was admired by her students and co-workers for her exceptional teaching abilities, endless creativity, and energetic personality.

She retired in 2012 and enjoyed crafting, reading, and spending time with her family, but nothing brought her more joy than the time she spent caring for her grandkids.

She touched the lives of so many with her loving and selfless nature.

Peggy is dearly missed by all who knew her.
