People knew her for her laugh at the Smith Clinic. On July 21, 1976, Peg married Victor Larson. They enjoyed pony chariot and chuckwagon races, lots of travelling and many fun times with family and friends. Peggy loved rodeos, wagon races, travelling, flower gardens, cards (rummy), little kids, family, friends, laughing, being teased, and food.
