Merseyside's own "Auntie Peg," best known for helping those most in need for decades, has shared her secret to 102 years of health and happiness.
Born Marjorie Monaghan in Birkenhead on September 30, 1920, still-sprightly Peggy Maskrey has lived an extraordinary life. One of five siblings growing up in Park Road, Peggy's life changed when she first went to Charles Thompson's Mission, a mission for poorer children, as a young girl.
In her lifetime, Peggy has worked at munitions factory during the Second World War, at Birkenhead’s former Robbs department store and started a family. But for 90 years, she also dedicated her life to those who needed help around her.
