PEGGIE ROBINSON
January 7, 1921 - June 28, 2021
She has been reunited with her beloved husband Jim, as well as her mother Margaret, father Victor, and her sister Daphne.
She will be dearly missed by her children, Victor (Lorraine) and Joan (Fred); her grandchildren, Christine (Justin), Sarah (Arturo), Jessica, Wesley and Dean; and her great-grandchildren, Abigail, Georgia, William and Jordan-Lee.
Peggie was born in Worthing, Sussex, England on January 7, 1921. She joined the fire service during the war from 1940 to 1945, and it was there that she met Jim, who was a Canadian soldier. They married in 1946 and came to live in Winnipeg.
Her and Jim founded J.A. Robinson Pump Service Ltd. in 1958. She was an intelligent businesswoman and stayed involved in the company's operations well into her 80s.
Peggie always kept busy. She loved to read and always stayed up to date with the latest news. Her week wasn't complete without a visit to the casino, and she enjoyed playing Bingo with her grandchildren. There was also never a shortage of dish cloths, as she knitted a dozen daily.
Peggie had a heart of gold and was loved by many. Whether she was visiting friends, offering companionship at Deer Lodge or making her rounds at Robinson Pump Service, everyone loved when Peggie came to visit.
Nannie, you will forever be in our hearts. We will celebrate your life and toast with a glass of rose.
A special thanks to the staff at Meadowood Manor.
In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the charity of your choice.
A private service will be held on Wednesday, July 7 at Chapel Lawn Cemetery.

Victor and Joan, I am sorry for your loss. For years I enjoyed your mother stopping by the house parking in the back lane and blowing the horn until I came out to talk with her. She was a wonderful kind lady. - Posted by: Jim E Hoglund (friend) on: Jul 03, 2021
