It is with great sadness that the family of Margaret (Peg) Philomena O’Sullivan of Calgary announce her passing at the Foothills Medical Centre on Monday, December 20, 2004 following a devastating accident on December 18, 2004. Peg was born on October 24, 1919 in Gorey Wexford, Ireland. She was a gift from God. She was a truly dynamic and caring individual, whose faith was a beacon to us all.
