Peggy Nell Earls, 69, of Austin departed peacefully on Sunday, February 15, 2009.

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the loss of our mother. Mom was an avid reader and a fabulous seamstress who loved life. She expressed her creativity through many avenues including jewelry making, gardening and baking. She was an inspiration to always do your best and be true to who you are. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother and friend and we already miss her dearly. Mom you were taken too soon; however, we take peace in believing that God wanted you more.

Peggy is survived by four children, six grandchildren, one great- grandchild and two brothers.

The family greeted friends and loved ones on Friday, February 20, 6-8 pm at 5503 Bitterwood Dr. Austin, Texas.

Memorial services were held on Saturday, February 21 at 2pm at Howell-Doran Funeral Home located at 1901 W. Wallace in San Saba, Texas.

Miss you and love you. Your children.

Funeral under the direction Howell-Doran Funeral Home.
