Gosh, remembering Peg, where do you start? Her beautiful smile, her warmth and personality? Well, some of the ways I remember Peg: She and I were roomates at the Champion convention. Peg would tell me stories of her early years in real estate when she was the only female agent. She said that the she was allowed to show the houses but couldn't write the contract. AND, she was informed by her male broker, that she didn't have to sleep with the male purchasers. She also told me about being in line for female personal items; the man in front of her was buying male personal items and didn't pay tax. When she was taxed for her personals, she took it to the Md. General Assembly and had the tax removed. I would smile myself to sleep. What a Gal!
Yes, there is only one Peg Wallace and I am proud to have known her and been touched by her love.
I will remember her gentle strength forever. May you be comforted in knowing how many people loved her.
Sincerely, Sue
