Peggy Shah Obituary

December 16, 1943 - August 30, 2023

Peggy Sue Shah went home to be with her Lord and Savior on August 30, 2023. She loved the Lord Jesus Christ with all her heart. Peggy led numerous others to the Lord and her powerful prayers ministered to myriads of people through the years. She embodied unconditional love and generosity. Peggy's beauty, inside and out, radiated to all. Her huge personality, humor, wit, and charisma will be missed on this present earth. She loved spending time with her family, reading, traveling, theater, and fashion. Peggy also cherished her favorite dog, Hamilton.

She worked at the United States Patent Office in Washington, DC as a secretary; at Clinch Valley College, as a receptionist and secretary; and for over 20 years at Status Allergy Clinic, as an Office Manager. However, her true work was lifting up and encouraging her family and friends and being the steadfast rock of the family.

She was preceded in death by her son, Chirag Shah; parents, Clifford Franklin and Inez Aistrop Franklin; brother, Ronnie Franklin; and nephew, Joey Franklin.

Shah; son, Clifford Franklin and his wife Tamra Franklin; daughter, Neesha Shah and fiancé Brandon Thompson; granddaughter, Sommer Franklin; sister-in-law, Betty Franklin; and her nephew, Benjamin Franklin; and many other special family and friends.
