Margaret Elizabeth “Peggy” Ackerman, 64, a lifelong area resident, died peacefully on Thursday, May 7, 2020, at Regional Hospice of Danbury.

Born January 2, 1956, in Sharon, CT, she was the daughter of the late Robert, Sr. and Beverly J. (Killmer) Boyles. Peggy was a 1974 graduate of Webutuck High School in Amenia, NY, and received an associate’s degree from Westchester Business Institute.

On June 12, 1988, in Wassaic, she married Randy Ackerman. Mr. Ackerman died in 2013.

Peggy worked as a secretary for the Taconic Developmental Disabilities Services Office in Wassaic, NY, a career that spanned from 1974 until her retirement in October of 2017.

She was a life member, and former vice president and president, of the Wassaic Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary, serving for over 40 years. She was also a member of the CSEA, and the Immaculate Conception Church in Amenia. She enjoyed playing Bingo, and attending and marching with the Wassaic Ladies Auxiliary in local fireman’s parades for many years--often seen leading the auxiliary proudly down the street and on to many “Best Overall” wins for her beloved department. Peggy was also a dedicated volunteer at the Thrift Shop in Dover Plains, and was an avid reader in her spare time. She will be dearly missed by her loving family and many friends.

Peggy is survived by her daughter, Jessica; sister, Judith; brothers, Robert and Gary; nephew, Russell; daughter-in-law, Crystal; three grandchildren; and one great-grandson.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was also predeceased by a son, Chadd Michael Ackerman.

Graveside services and burial will take place on Thursday, May 14, 2020, 11 a.m., at Immaculate Conception Cemetery, Amenia, NY. Rev. Clarice Murphy will officiate.
