Margaret Lee, the daughter of Frank and Leona (Gerdts) Coenen, was born on January 11, 1947 in St. Paul, MN. She attended White Bear Lake High School and graduated with the class of 1965. Following high school, Peggy attended the Faribault Vocational School for nursing and earned her degree as an LPN. She worked for several years as a nurse at the Faribault Regional Center Hospital until she began a new business, J.P. Works Cleaning Service, with her friend Jewel Grundman. Later she would obtain her realtor license and sell for Reineke Real Estate. Peggy's whole life evolved around her family and grandchildren and she loved them deeply. Peggy was passionate about Pro Life Ministries and she worked many days as a side walk counselor for them. Peggy also volunteered for over 18 years for the Faribault Area Hospice.
