Margaret “Peggy” Williams Doole

GERMANTOWN - Margaret (Peggy) Williams Doole was born on December 17th, 1934 in Alliance, Nebraska to Donald E. Williams and Margaret R. Williams. Peg was a lifelong learner as valedictorian of her high school class and as an alumna from Wellesley College, University of Colorado, Stanford University and Rutgers University. She held master’s degrees in English and Art History with her greatest educational love being Art History. Married to Air Force pilot and Colonel, Bill Doole, for 60 years, Peg was a middle and high school teacher in Nebraska, Montana and California and later taught students through her docent tours in Oklahoma and at the National Gallery of Art.

Peg was always a leader in any community she entered with great adaptive skills applied to the lifestyle of military culture. She was a wonderful listener and thought about others, before herself. She is survived by her husband, Bill, children, Bruce and wife Susy, Mary and husband Sid, grandchildren, Jordan, Sidney and Meg, Peg’s sister, Edwyna and husband Phil, nephews, Tim and Ben. She often said, “I have had a wonderful life and couldn’t ask for anything more.” She will be dearly missed in this world by her family and her friends, as she touched the hearts of so many people with love and grace.

The memorial service will be held at 11:00 a.m., Thursday, December 23, 2021 at Memorial Park Funeral Home. The Reverend Susan Carter Wiggins with Germantown Presbyterian Church will officiate. The family will receive guests 30 minutes prior to the service.
