Peggy D’Amico, 1939-2020

Peggy was born April 15, 1939, in Columbiana, the daughter of Kendall and Maryanne Foray Cason. She was a graduate of North Lima High School and had worked at General Foods as an executive secretary.

Peggy married Thomas “Tom” D’Amico on June 5, 1971, and was married for 50 years. After her children were raised, she went to work with her husband at D’Amico Agency Inc., Realtors.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her grandson, Casey Henry Nemenz; her sister, Patricia Saad; and her brother, Christopher Cason.
