I am so sorry for your loss Zach. I am another quit friend. Your mom was a very special person that touched many lives, mine included. I know she loved you with all her heart and I will never forget how she helped me with my quit and some other personal things I had going on in my life. May God give you peace and strength in the days to come.

Zach,
I am another one of your Mom's Quit buddies. Without her help, I doubt I would be smoke free for the 9 years that I've managed so far. We talked about so, so much more than just smoking. We shared our lives, our hopes, our dreams. I know she loved you more than you can ever imagine. You and my daughter are the same age and we shared our biggest hopes and prayers for you both. I met you once, very briefly. Another friend and I came down to visit Peggy very briefly, and somehow we ended up giving you a ride somewhere. So, it was around 10 minutes in the car that I doubt you will remember. I remember, because your mom was oozing withthat unspoken mom love in her heart that I could just feel, even after you got out.
I know it's hard. You can do this. Carry her in your heart with you.

Zach, I know these comments are hard ,your mom was a special person to a lot of us. It was an internet friendship that for me was just over 12 years. A lot of us came to together to support each other. And your mom was a main part of that. Not only did we quit smoking together , but we became friends.
I know she was very proud of you. Especially the last few years and how you have grown into the man that you are now.
We al wish we had more time with her, but I know her wish was to have more time with you.
She wanted to leave you with memories, things so she would always be a part of your future.
In a way she has given us all the responsibility to help take care of Zach. So if you need anything. Just let us know.

Sorry for your loss.

Zach, Peggy was the best friend I never met. We connected via Quitnet 9 years ago and one night when I was craving about 3 months into my quit, she spent a long time on the site with me, until the craving was over and I was solid again. I can honestly say that I don't know what would have happened if she hadn't been there. I didn't smoke then, and I still do not smoke.

She touched so many lives in a caring and positive way. I am so glad her passing was peaceful. That is a blessing not many are afforded. She was a remarkable woman. Blessings to you during this very difficult time.

Zach, as I know you are already aware, Peggy has been a wonderful friend to so many. I know her from the quitnet, where she and many others help me along with countless others to quit cigarettes. She traveled by car alone to Chicago to meet me in person when I was traveling with a group. We spent a couple of days together and also met another quitnet friend and his sweet wife at their home outside Chicago. I spent many hours in talks with her via phone, text, and email. She loved you onconditionally and loved so many others as well and always wanted to do good things and help others.

I will and already do miss her greatly as her exit from this life has left a void in my world. It is filled each day however with loving remembrances of our wonderful friendship.

If there is ever a time you need a shoulder, a listening ear, or even some actual something to help you through a tough time I hope you'll remember that most any of the CUC group would love to have the opportunity to help in some way.

(((Zach))), like many others here, you don’t know me. Your mom and I quit smoking together. We met many years ago in Chicago, and visited together when she came to Maryland. It goes without saying how much she loved you. Please reach out if there’s anything I can do. Sandy - Maryland sandy.scanlon@gmail.com - guess it helps to give you some contact information.

Zach, I am so sorry for your loss. I am another quit net friend . Your mom was loved and will be missed by many. I am praying for serenity for you at this difficult time.

Zachary I loved your mom so much.
She thought of others over herself and was so fierce and warm and smart.
I wish I could have seen her before she passed away, as we planned.
I know you dont know me but I wish you all the best... I am so sorry for your loss... all of our loss.
My husband Mark was one of the original quit smoking friends, and I met her 10 years ago when he did at the Quitnet gathering. Your mom and I struck up a recent (but very important to me) friendship when she helped me quit smoking. I think I am 4 months quit but we IM'ed into the night as she coached me, even well after she received her diagnosis.
What an exceptional woman.
Please let us know if we can do anything, and if a service is planned... markandjennyburnett@gmail.com , and accept my deepest sympathy.

Zach, I’m so very sorry for your loss. I am another one of your moms smoking buddies—don’t know if you remember my name, but I wrote you a letter a couple of years ago. My email is aliciaduhon@gmail.com. If you need to talk, I’m a good listener. You are not alone—please take care of yourself.

Please let us know how we can help out. I will miss my partner in crime from the Farmers Market. She became a fast friend and I will miss her very much. My contact information should be in your mom’s phone so please let me know if you need anything.
