Margaret A. “Peggie” Dippold, 91, recently a resident of Pinecrest Manor and formerly of Catalina Road, St. Marys, PA passed away at Penn Highlands Elk on Monday, January 15, 2024.

She was born on February 2, 1932 in St. Marys, a daughter of the late Anthony “Bruno” and Luitgard “Louie” Schinabeck Schauer.

On June 19, 1954, in St. Marys Church, she married the late William L. “Bill” Dippold, who preceded her in death on June 25, 2020. Together they shared more than 66 years of marriage.

Peggie was a graduate of Central High School, class of 1950 and was a lifelong member of St. Marys Church. She was a longtime member of the CYMA, the K of C, and the CMF.
