Born June 28, 1938, to the late Dr. and Mrs. David L. Lieberman, Sr., she spent her entire life in the same home in the Town of Chester.

She held various roles throughout the years at Valley Shore YMCA, Chester Public Library, and the Chester Historical Society. She was a lifelong member of the United Church of Chester.
Peggy was a true sports fanatic. She loved her UConn women’s basketball team and the New York Yankees. She also enjoyed boating in Eastern Long Island Sound, fishing in the Florida Keys, and visiting lighthouses.

She is also survived by cousin Bart Gullong of Jupiter, Florida; cousin Jane Gullong of New York City; and many grandnieces and nephews.
