Our dear mother, Frances Pauline “Peggy” Gullett passed away peacefully on May 4, 2024 in Tempe AZ, just three weeks before her 104th birthday.
Born and raised in Logan County, Ohio, she married her husband Richard, in 1944. They moved to Arizona with their young family in 1949. Peggy retired from a career in electric assembly from Garrett AiResearch in Phoenix in 1980. She enjoyed sports, travel, and antiques, especially her doll collections and quilts.
She is survived by her daughter Alana Ulrich; son Greg (and his wife Betty); son-in-law Joe Walsh; granddaughter Joyce (and her husband JR) Cope; grandson Lance Gullett; granddaughter Ali Ulrich; three great-grandchildren, Zane, Ryker and Sloane Cope; sister-in-law Jeanie Starkey; and dozens of beloved nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Richard, daughter Nancy Walsh, and infant sons Freddie and Jackie. We are thankful for the loving care and support provided by Hospice of the Valley and the caring staff at Friendship Village Health Care Center over the past two years. Memorial donations may be made to Hospice of the Valley.
Funeral services will be at Resthaven/Carr-Tenney Mortuary, 4310 E. Southern Ave, Phoenix AZ 85042 on Tuesday, May 28. Visitation will commence at 10 a.m., service at 11 a.m., and interment at noon, followed by a reception at the mortuary.
