How would Peggy most want to be remembered?

Ned Berke
"Retired [Inquirer] columnist William J. Speers, who met Ms. Anderson when they worked at The Inquirer in the late 1960s, said she was witty, a good listener, and fun to be with.

"'She had such a lively mind,' he said."

From the Philadelphia Inquirer: "Peggy had a very full life, but she was always available when we needed her," said David Sullivan, assistant managing editor for editing, standards, and operations. "She could handle all types of news and features stories with equal skill. When she first came to work for us, a colleague said, 'That's the Peggy Anderson of Nurse?'

"I had no idea she was well-known nationally and wondered if she was going to have trouble with being part of a copy desk. On the contrary, she fit right in as part of the team from the beginning," Sullivan said.
