PEGGY E ROLLANS
Johnson's Funeral Home
Peggy E. Rollans, 62, passed away at her home in San Angelo on Sunday, Aug. 25,
2002. She was a Christian and a member of the College Hills Baptist Church. She
went to be with her Lord, confident of her place in heaven following a 12-year
battle with cancer. She loved life and made the most her good days and never
complained about the bad days or her condition. She was a firm believer in the
power of prayer and prayed for her family, friends and others who had problems
or were in need. She would listen to others' problems but never commented or
complained about her own.
The family will receive visitors between 4 and 6 p.m.
Tuesday, Aug. 27, at Johnson's Funeral Home. Graveside service will be at 2
p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 28, in Lawnhaven Memorial Gardens with the Rev. Lakan

mom. She loved to bake cakes and cookies for friends and family.
