Peggy was born on June 25, 1955 in Bartlesville, Oklahoma to Raymond and Marcia (Morris) Meek.
Peggy married the love of her life, Daniel Jackson on November 26, 1976 in Bartlesville. Their love story and devotion to one another was larger-than-life. Together they established a loving and safe environment to raise their daughters in. Sadly, Danny preceded her in death on November 23, 2003. Peggy was also preceded in death by both of her parents as well as her in-laws Howard and Viola (Blakemore) Jackson of Bartlesville, her brother DeWayne Meek and sister Emily White both of McCune, Kansas.
Peggy was a Licensed Practical Nurse who worked in senior services at many local entities in the Bartlesville area through the years. She was a school nurse for the Bartlesville Public Schools while her daughters were younger so she could have a convenient schedule to be an available and involved mother. She had a caring, nurturing spirit that was evident through the various lives that she touched through mentoring or teaching in the nursing field. Peggy was also very creative and had talent for drawing and painting. She also put her creativity to use in baking and decorating cakes as a means for extra income and to pay for nursing school. Her most treasured times of baking were with her beloved grandchildren, they usually baked cookies and Peggy never seemed to mind the messes. An empty nest hobby that Dan and Peggy enjoyed was antiquing. Peggy was a collector of many things and enjoyed searching for treasures. Peggy loved watching classic movies on TCM, listening to oldies music, reading, adding to her “Elvis Room” and she was an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys since the 1980’s.
