From Peg's son, Greg Impellitier:
A Doorway to Heaven
with no more pain
or tears
Mom enjoyed music, dancing, and listening to me singing “My Way”, and following my brother Keith’s band around town like a groupie! She loved concerts at CMAC, she loved all her family and friends and was an amazing Mother, Grandmother and Great Grandmother.
She raised five kids in 1960 on her own and was always there for us. My grandparents came from Buffalo New York to live with us to help out. Without them, she would not have made it. Then she met Sully & got married in the 70's.
Sully said, “I have three, Joe, Jim and Paul and you have five, Kim, Ric, Cathy, Greg and Robert. Eight is enough! Another Brady Bunch. We need to get a revolving door! We all got along just fine, and it was love that kept us all together as a loving and caring family.
I remember trying to surprise my mom for her 75th birthday party was nearly impossible, but we all pulled it off. 20 years later October 11, 2019 we celebrated her 95th, however she said that day, I'm 39 & holding! She always had a cute smile on her face & loved all the people around her at those Precious moments of her life. I said to Her jokingly hey mom, do you know who I am? Her response was with a cute smile No!!!!
Then she said “Greg” and I said, how do you spell it? " G – R – E - G you’re my son!!!”
We laughed.
We always celebrated our birthdays together, as mine is the 10th. And I will never Forget this past October 2019.
I have been closer to my mom these last six years than in my whole life& the memories we shared will be in my heart forever. I want to thank everyone at the Legacy that shared the love and caring for my mom.
An extra special thanks to:
Karen Acker, Pat Tracy, Carolyn Demonte, Christina O’Neil, Danielle Connors, Aryias Day & and her mom Pat Day, Sharon Kimelman, Caleigh Sullivan, Barb and Maureen & Helvia Perez. I thank my God for lending me the most wonderful loving and caring caregivers. All of these people named loved my mom and cared for her genuinely. I couldn't have made it through without their help thank you very very much from the bottom of my heart.
