Obituary for
Margaret Ann Cornell
Margaret “Peggy” Cornell, of Glenshaw, went home to be with our lord and her beloved mother-in-law, Marie. She is bereaved by her Husband of 58 years, William “Blue” Cornell; her children, Kim Cornell, Cassandra Cornell Gillen, and William Cornell Jr.; her precious grandchild, Heather Cornell; her brother, William Duderstadt (Susie); sister-in-law, Wilma Anastassopoulos (Nick); nieces; nephews; her sister, Judy Barna; extended family and friends.
Although Peggy was a 50’s housewife, she broke the glass ceiling in her own right, by being on the Shaler School Board, a soccer coach, and a referee. She went back to school at age 50 and earned a degree in Accounting and Book Keeping. She then went on to be a successful customer service rep for At&t.
Peggy was a veracious reader and was great at penny poker. She loved to fish, crochet, visit the thrift store, and be with friends. Most importantly, her life was her kids.
Peggy was a strong willed woman, who saw herself through many hardships in life. She will be remembered for her wit, thoughtfulness and her never ending love of friends and family. Peggy was a faithful wife and beloved mother and grandmother. We were all blessed to know her. She will be dearly missed.
