Peggy's only husband Bryan 'Bud' Gentry Hawley was on the Marine Corps Muster Rolls by October 1944, at least 5 years before they were married.
Peggy met Bud some place around Lomita ... she was attending Narbonne High School and he came to Southern California to build the Torrance Airport, the Zamperini Field.
In 1975 Peggy and Bud would take their first ever vacation. Peggy's Mom; Goldie, was in the hospital, it was difficult for Peggy to go out of town. Peggy borrowed her brothers truck and camper to go to the Kern River ... the whole family loved to go to the Kern. Peggy had stopped taking her blood pressure medicine. Maybe that is why she fell and hit her head on a rock, Bud took Peggy to Torrance Memorial Hospital, the 'only' hospital the Family would go to. Peggy had an aneurism, she never woke up. Peggy was in such overall good health that it was requested her corneas be transplanted to a 16 year old. The Family consented.
