Margaret Ellen Campbell, Peggy to those who knew her, of both New Canaan, CT and Jupiter FL, and wife of the late Nicholas J. Campbell, died at her new home in Memphis, TN this past Saturday, June 16th. She left us much loved and will be greatly missed. Born in Irvington, NY, she was the daughter of Francis and Katherine Follmer, who raised Margaret and her sister Mary in Tarrytown, NY. Throughout her young life she was very active in this town known for its revolutionary history. Upon graduation from Washington Irving High School and Geneseo State College, Peggy returned to Tarrytown to teach 3rd grade within the elementary school system. It was during this time that she met her future husband Nicholas. Following their marriage at Transfiguration Church, she and Nicholas moved to Tarrytown to start a family, and ultimately settled in Ardsley, NY. It was in Ardsley that Margaret turned her full attention to the raising of her children: Nicholas, Thomas, Stasia and Andrew. Peggy was very active within the Ardsley community where she was a member of the PTA, a den mother, a Girl Scout leader, a softball coach and occasional local politician supporting her husband’s campaign as President of the Ardsley School Board. The family moved to New Canaan in the early 1980’s and, like her experience in Ardsley, she immersed herself into town life. Peggy just loved New Canaan. She was active in various organizations in the town including Dance Club, Newcomers Club, and Encore Club. She always enjoyed walking up and down Elm Street looking in the shops and visiting with everyone she met. Though very active with her family, Peggy had many personal pursuits: she was an avid golfer, scoring a hole-in-one on two different occasions; learned how to ski at an age when most people were retiring; and hiked the Swiss Alps on multiple occasions. Both she and Nicholas had a bit of wanderlust, thus traveling the world seeking new adventures. The couple wintered Jupiter, FL where both continued their passion for life, family and golf. Margaret is survived by her four children, their spouses, fifteen grandchildren (though her angel Dylin died in 1999) and one great grandson. A funeral celebration will be offered at St. Aloysius Church in New Canaan Monday, June 25th at 10:00am.
