Margaret Ann Greca, affectionately known as Peggy, age 76, of Saline, Michigan passed away peacefully on Tuesday, August 13th, 2024 with her family by her side.
Born to her beloved parents James A Willett and Marjorie H Willett (Wolgast) on November 6th, 1947, Peggy’s life was a tapestry of love, family, and service to her Catholic faith.
After meeting at a party in early 1968, Peggy married the love of her life Donald J. Greca Jr on August 31st, 1968 at Saint Thomas Aquinas in Detroit, MI. Their earthly journey together lasted nearly 34 years before her beloved husband passed away in June 2002. She never stopped loving Don and is now heavenly reunited with him. Their journey together of affection, devotion, and memories created a loving home raising six children, three sons and three daughters: Craig, Scott, Kristi, Darren, Julie and Kerri. Peggy was the most loving Mom who treasured family time above all else – first with her children and then with her many beloved grandchildren.
Peggy’s early career as a registered nurse began at Harper Hospital in Detroit before moving onto her life’s most treasured profession – full time Mom and Homemaker. In the fall of 1989, Peggy began another vocation she was called to: becoming a Director of Religious Education at St. Andrew Catholic Church. In this position she helped children in grades K-6 become disciples of Christ by learning about their Catholic Faith. She served the parish community for many years until she retired on June 30th, 2016. Her passion for educating children and developing their faith, like her own children, was far reaching and she made a truly lasting impact on her Catholic community. Forever “Mom” and “Grandma”, she will always be the Queen of her family and will be missed immensely.
Peggy was always there as someone people could count on for wisdom, and she never gave up on them. Her light and love will continue to burn brightly in everyone that she touched!
