Peggy Salas

We are sad to announce that Peggy Salas left for her heavenly abode on March 27 in Pascagoula, Mississippi. Peggy Salas was an accomplished woman, wife, and mother that dedicated her life to not only her 11 children, but also her 34 grandchildren and 29 great-grandchildren. Peggy loved to spend her time traveling the country, playing bingo, and speaking on the phone with her immense family and friends. In the last few years, Peggy, a fiery, independent woman lived in Ohio, Colorado, and Mississippi, where she ultimately went on to meet our heavenly father. Peggy is survived by her children, Julian and Savannah Salas, Felecia Galvan, Shannon Iddings and Allen, Terri Jo Gallagher, Bessie Lou Galvan, Francheska (Mickie) Galvan, Mike and Beth Iddings, Marcia Galvan Thompson, Misty and Danny Coverman, April and Randy Robbins, and Hailee Galvan. She is also survived by her loving, doting sisters Cyndi Metz, Shirley Brewer, and Tracy and Kent Staton, that meant absolutely everything to Peggy. Peggy was greeted in heaven by her father Dutch Metz, mother Betty Metz, grandson Dustin Adkins, and her daughter Brandy Galvan.

Don’t grieve for me, from pain I’m free I’m following the path God has laid, you see. I took his hand when I heard his call I turned around and left it all. I could not stay another day To laugh, to love, to work, or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way I found peace on a sunny day. Of my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joys. A family shared a laugh, and a kiss Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I’ve savored much, Good family, good times, and a loved one’s touch. Perhaps my time seems all too brief Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee. God wanted me now; From pain I’m free.
