My husband Bob and I only knew Peggy for about 8 years. It was quickly recognized what a prize she was and a delight to all those that knew her. I loved listening to the interesting stories of her life and how she became the pizza princess of Gino's. She was voted the Edgewater Sweetheart Award by the Edgewater Chamber of Commerce. Everybody loved her wonderful smile,sense of humor, and kindness. Peggy will be missed, but never forgotten. Peggy---you were always beautiful and will be remembered as a beautiful person. Our condolences to Peggy's family. May you celebrate her life and how lucky you have been to be part of her life. May she rest in loving peace.--------Rae Ann & Bob Cecrle

Our deepest sympathies go out to the Gelsomino Family. Peggy was a bright spirit, always quick with a smile and a hug, always caring about her family and ours, and the community. She will be missed! Most unfortunately, due to the pandemic we are unable to attend the wake in person but will be there in thought and prayer to support the family and to honor Peggy's memory.

I will miss talking to you on the telephone, Peggy, after moving back to Ohio from Chicago. It was great being a special friend to you for over 30 years. Enjoy your new life in heaven.
