Born in Philadelphia on September 19, 1940, to the late Patrick and Nellie Reddy, Peggy graduated from West Catholic High School in 1958 and spent 13 years as a Sister of Mercy. After earning a Bachelor’s in Nursing from Gwynedd Mercy College and a Master’s in Nursing from New York University, her ministry of mercy continued as she served as head nurse of Jefferson Hospital’s Rehabilitation Unit. Peggy loved the beach and enjoyed traveling, having been to 5 continents. Peggy was predeceased by her beloved husband Michael Daly, her brothers Jack and Daniel Reddy, and sister-in-law Lorraine Reddy. She is survived by her companion of 10 years, Frank Clawell.
