The Villages is mourning the sudden loss of the longtime leader of the Rainbow Family and Friends group. Peggy Garvin died after returning home from a trip to Virginia Beach, Va. where she had planned to attend her 60th high school class reunion. She skipped the reunion when she learned she had COVID-19. The 78-year-old was recovering, had tested negative and had returned to The Villages when she died in her sleep. She was found Sunday morning by her longtime wife, Wendy O’Donnell. They had been planning a trip to Quebec and were to depart Monday, Sept. 30.
