Peg Bearsley, 71, of Carlisle Twp., died Monday, December 31, 2007 at Eliza Jennings Home in Cleveland. She was born, March 13, 1936 in Birkenhead, England, and had been a resident of Carlisle Twp. for the past 30 years.

She enjoyed traveling with her husband Philip (deceased 2001). They were happily married for 46 years.

She was Owner/Operator of Treetops Kennel in Carlisle Township.

Peg lived a very unique and interesting life, including her early years as a child and teenager during and after WWII in England; her marriage and emigration to Canada and the U.S. with her husband Phil; her singing/performing career in Northeastern Ohio and her entrepreneurial ventures.

We remember a robust, vibrant Peg who took chances rather than to play it safe; a strong personality who cared deeply about causes, people, nature and the environment.

She is survived by her sister, Jean Boonstra of South Africa; brother, James Platt of Madison; cousin, Sheila Scott (nee Harold); several nieces and nephews.

The family will receive friends Wednesday from 5 P.M. until a 7 P.M. Memorial Service at Dicken Funeral Home, 323 Middle Ave., Elyria. Paster Rick Stein, pastor of First United Presbyerian Church will officiate. Memorial contributions can be made to a charity of the donor’s choice.
