Margaret (Peggy) Mundy Mosby

Lynchburg has always been home for Peggy Mosby, except for two years at Saint Catherine’s School in Richmond, Virginia, and four years at Sweet Briar College majoring in American Studies.  Soon after graduating from Sweet Briar, Peggy married Richard Mosby (deceased 2018).  They had known each other since childhood as they grew up living just a few houses apart on Rivermont Avenue and had attended the same elementary school.

Peggy has four children and nine grandchildren.  Ty, Jr. and his wife Jacquelyn live in Goode, Virginia.  A second son, Steve, and his wife Lynn reside in Moseley, Virginia, while a third son Billy and wife Lane call Richmond home.  Peggy’s daughter, Ginger Lambrecht, along with husband Paul, live in Summerfield, North Carolina.  When her youngest child entered school, Peggy began what became a 22-year career as a preschool teacher at First Presbyterian Church in Lynchburg.

While her children were in school Peggy belonged to and actively participated in various school related organizations.  She is a former member of the Junior League and the Lynchburg Garden Club.  In the past she also held membership on the boards of the Miller Home and Lynchburg Mental Health Association.  Peggy is a member of St. John’s Church.

At one time, gardening and handcraft activities, such as knitting and smocking, were favorite hobbies.  Today, they have been replaced with reading and spending as much time as possible with her grandchildren.
