She lived in South Dakota for a few years after the death of her father before moving to Minneapolis, MN to live with relatives. Peggy graduated from Miller Vocational High School in 1933 and on July 14, 1934, she married Otto Earl Pogue. They had four children, daughter, Patricia; three sons, Earl, Charles, and Larry. They settled in Mound, MN in 1945 to finish raising their family. In 1971, they moved to New Mexico due to Peggy's health problems and in 1975, they made a permanent move to Los Lunas, NM. In October 2000, she moved to Plano, TX to live near her daughter. She was preceded in death by her husband Otto (1980); five grandchildren, Robert (1972), Scott and Michele (1978), Michael (1988) and Jessica (2003); daughter-in-law, Arlene (1996); and her oldest son, Earl (2001).

Peggy looked to her Lord to see her through many trials on earth and she now rests safely in His arms. Memorial services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on March 12, 2005 at Christ the King Lutheran Church in Los Lunas with interment to follow at Terrace Grove Cemetery in Belen. In accordance with her wishes, cremation has taken place. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Christ the King Lutheran Church or Lutheran World Relief Tsunami fund.
