PEGGY ALICE WILLIAMS Feb. 12, 1947 – June 6, 2023
Peggy Alice Williams was called to Heaven June 6, 2023 at the age of 76.
A New Mexican native; born Feb. 12, 1947 in Taos to Paul and Louise Iko. She had two brothers, William and Robert, and one sister, Laurie.
As a child she flourished in the Taos beauty and arts. She excelled in school and in her twenties took employment with the United Nations as a medical records administrator. This opportunity afforded her not only the ability to help people and further her education, but also to live a life of adventure; visiting
many beautiful places across all seven countries of Central America.
Peggy was a free spirit with an intelligent mind, infectious laugh, and desire to serve. She met her husband, Frederick, at a church dance and they married a short 3 weeks later Feb. 19, 1977. Together, they spent the next 41 years building a family and making memories.
In 1988, she came home to New Mexico, settling in Los Alamos where she continued to be a part of the
medical community. Peggy was an accomplished pianist/organist and she would often accompany the
church choir on Sundays. She enjoyed creating, be it cross-stitch, sewing, cooking, gardening, or
puzzles; her hands always busy or holding a book. She even built model doll houses complete with
functioning electricity. She loved the outdoors, and was an animal lover through and through.
A very strong woman, Peggy faced challenges head on with a positive attitude and a joke here and
there. She was a beloved wife, mother, and friend. She will be missed.
Funeral services will be held at 5 p.m., Friday, June 16 at the Los Alamos LDS church.
