Peggy Ann Jackson Koon passed away peacefully on January 25, 2025, surrounded by her loved ones, leaving behind a legacy of love, service, and faith. She was preceded in death by her eternal companion, Roger Koon.
Peggy was born on March 14, 1954, in Nephi, Utah, to Eugene and Adele Jackson.

Peggy cherished her role as a grandmother to her 15 grandchildren, each of whom brought immense joy to her life.
Peggy’s deep faith was a cornerstone of her life. She loved serving in many callings at church and found peace and purpose in her frequent visits to the temple. Her example of service, devotion, and unwavering faith inspired all who knew her.

Above all, Peggy will be remembered for her boundless love, selfless spirit, and her ability to bring light and strength to her family and community. Her warmth and compassion will be dearly missed by all whose lives she touched.

Peggy was one of my college roommates — I was there when she and Roger met and was around when her first children were born. I loved her dearly and always will. Sending love to the family ❤️

Peggy was always such a bright light when I went in to Middle Canyon. She was so kind and so happy to see everyone that came in those doors. She will always be special to us and will surely be missed!

I remember Peggy when we lived in Monticello. Her smile was definitely one of the sweetest II have known. I pray for all her family at this time of loss.

I was one of the teachers whose lives she blessed at Middle Canyon Elementary School. She was always cheerful and smiling and would do anything possible to help anyone.
Later, we met in my son's ward to watch Primary Programs containing our grandchildren. Oh! how she adored those children and all of her grandchildren.
I was impressed with her love for her dear husband and for her children. Her first responsibility and love was in her own home.
Peggy will be missed by many people. They just don't come much sweeter than Peggy!
I pray for her family to have peace and comfort and to know that she is not far away.

Sweet Peggy!
She was so easy to love.
So privileged to have had the opportunity to get to know and love her. Everyone coming into Middle Canyon Elementary was met with her sweet smile and greeting She always looked for the positive in any child that had to be sent to the office and any teacher who needed a lift.
May you always remember the sunshine she brought into so many lives.

Dearest Family. All my love from England.
Peggy is such a wonderful lady. She was always there for me in Monticello when I needed help.
When I was sick she came to my aid and saved my life. Something I have never forgotten. and I remember Roger gave me a blessing. I don't know what was said. I just felt at peace. Peggy will always remain in my heart ❤️. Until we meet again.

Peggy is an elect lady, a true example of Christlike love, and one of the favorite persons we have known. No finer folks than Roger and Peggy and their family. We have loved them ever since being introduced in Monticello. We know Roger and Peggy are having a sweet reunion. Hope the kids and family know of our love and support. We are thankful at times like this that we understand Father's plan and know we can be together again.
