CANFIELD - A prayer service for Mrs. Margaret "Peg" McGlone will be held on Saturday, Feb. 25, at 9:15 a.m. at the Higgins-Reardon Funeral Homes, Boardman-Canfield Chapel. This will be followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. at St. Charles Catholic Church in Boardman. Peg passed away peacefully, with family at her side on Monday afternoon at the Inn at Ironwood.

Peg was born March 20, 1932, in Youngstown, a daughter of Thomas and Margaret Reardon McGahagan.

She was a 1950 graduate of Ursuline High School.

Peg married the love of her life, Joseph F. McGlone, on Oct. 11, 1952, and they were married until his death on Sept. 26, 2002. Together they had seven children who filled their lives with love and laughter.

Passionate about her faith, she spent any free time she had volunteering for St. Nicholas Parish, teaching CCD, managing the schedule for lectors and distributors and supporting the Moms and Dads Club. She also spent over 20 years as a volunteer at the Ursuline Motherhouse.

After her children were grown, she worked for Wern and Associates Inc. from 1994 to 2014, as the corporate treasurer and business manager.

She leaves to cherish her memory, her children, Maureen (Charles) Wern of Warren, Mary Catherine "Kitty" (William) Brown of Canfield, James of Struthers, John (Sally) of Jamestown, Pa., Michael (Lori) of Boardman and Matthew (Judi) of Canfield; her daughter-in-law, Lorraine McGlone of Hudson and her sister, Mary (Thomas) Pompura of Canfield; 18 grandchildren; and three stepgrandchildren.

Peg was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Joseph; her son, Joseph P.; her brother, Thomas McGahagan; and her dearest friends, Jane and William Thornton.

Friends may call Friday from 3 to 7 p.m. at the funeral home.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Ursuline Mother House.

The family wishes to thank the staff members at the Inn at Ironwood who cared so lovingly for Peg.
