Margaret “Peggy” Mae Howe, born July 8, 1946, in Black Duck, Minnesota, to Morton and Della Butts, passed away on January 10, 2025, after a five-year battle with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. Peggy met the love of her life, Lynn Howe, in college; they married in 1967 and graduated in 1968. They raised three sons in Billings Montana from 1972 to 2016. Peggy will be remembered as a devoted wife, loving mother, and adoring grandmother. Her life was marked by kindness, love, humility, and perseverance. She loved Jesus Christ, her Lord and Savior, and was a “servant of all.” Peggy supported Lynn’s pastoral ministry in Billings for 42 years and in Laramie Wyoming for 8 years.
She is survived by her husband, Lynn; sons Lance (Carina), Josh (Laura), and Jeremy (Megan); grandchildren Luke, Ethan, Ella, Johnny, Nolan, Abigail, Addison, Jackson, Zachary, and Harper; and siblings Wesley (Judy), Donna, and Glenda (Lloyd).
