Peggy married Arthur Willard Carmichael Jr. on September 11, 1965 at Holy Cross Church in South Portland. Above everything else, Peggy loved spending time with family and she was thrilled to be able to spoil her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was a wonderful Italian cook (who learned the Italian way of cooking, from her mother), who made everything from scratch, including her pasta sauce. Let’s put it this way, Peggy would never let you go away hungry, from her four course Italian dinners. Peggy enjoying having the family together for vacations, spending the day at the beach, or viewing Portland Headlight, with a yummy Italian sub, as the sun was shining so bright, on her. In her free time she enjoyed playing scrabble, working on word searches, crosswords, and reading. She will be greatly missed and loved by so many.
