Margaret Rose (Wilke)

Margaret Helen Rose 'Peg' Wilke was born in Van Nuys, California to Robert and Lillian Rose on November 1, 1936 and passed away January 10, 2020. Peg was the middle child of three, with an older sister Bobby and younger brother Bill (SPHS '59). She and Glenn F Wilke were married in August 1956.

Peg loved her Lord Jesus Christ, and from the day she first believed her family saw the changes in her life. Because of her faith and persistence, her whole family came to know their loving God. She was active in the San Gabriel community where Glenn owned GH Wilke Jewelers and also in her church; she was a speaker with the Christian Women's Club, taught women's Bible studies, and counseled many women. She lived for and loved her family deeply.

Peg is survived by sons Dave (Tracy) and Steve (Christina) and daughter Krista Czerwiak (Andres). She is also survived by five grandchildren as well as three great-grandchildren.
