Ritter, Marguerite A. "Peggy" (nee Rachac) age 101, of Bloomington, passed away peacefully Oct. 15, 2024. Preceded in death by husband, Thomas, and daughter, Anne Roth. Peggy was a woman of multiple interests and talents - a painter, a poet, an elocutionist. Her love of the arts started as a child and continued throughout her life - taking water color lessons in her 50s and acting in a community theater play at the age of 81. Peggy's life centered around family. She was a cherished wife and mother of seven daughters. Later in life she found satisfaction in volunteering with Meals on Wheels, at funeral luncheons, and as a reader at church services. She worked at Lifetouch where she made lifelong friends. She spread her wings but still focused on her family as adults. Peggy was a voracious reader, Scrabble player, crossword puzzle solver, and bridge player. She liked jokes, trivia, and Jeopardy!. Having taken Latin in high school, she was a woman of words and a walking dictionary. Survived by daughters Theresa (Greg) Utecht, Susan, Margie (Ross) Dugas, Martha (Brian Reinert), Mary Jo (Kurt) Roth, Amy; 15 grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren. Funeral mass at 11 AM Wednesday October 30 at Nativity of Mary Catholic Church, 9900 Lyndale Ave. S., Bloomington. There will be a visitation at 10 AM, one hour prior to service.
