Peggy (born as Nancy Marie Pebbles) Swafford, 83, of Mountain View, Arkansas passed away on Monday, December 30, 2019 at her home surrounded by her loving family. Peggy was born on April 2, 1936 in Bloomfield, Iowa to the late George and Lona (Thompson) Pebbles. Peggy spent her adult life as a homemaker. She was a member of Arbanna Baptist Church, the Ben EHC, and the Shady Lawn Quilting Ladies. Peggy enjoyed trying to catch the biggest fish out of the family pond and always bragged when she caught the largest fish. Aside from being an avid reader, she loved making crocheted blankets and quilts for her children and grandchildren, which they will cherish forever. Peggy took great pride in helping to plan the annual Swafford Family Reunion and was always a significant part of making the Swafford family quilt. She will be greatly missed by all of her loving family and friends.
