Peggy Ann Bane Drenth was born May 16, 1963, to proud parents, Patricia Dazey and Kenneth Bane. Peggy spent her childhood in Wingate, graduating from North Montgomery High School in 1981. Peggy proudly graduated from Purdue University with a bachelor’s degree, where she also met her husband of 35 years, Mark Drenth. Together they welcomed three daughters, and lived primarily in Fishers. Peggy had three grandchildren and two lovable dogs. She was an avid sports fan, particularly football, and a lover of books, mountains and dogs.
Professionally, Peggy spent many happy years as the children’s education director at New Hope Presbyterian in Fishers before beginning an exciting journey as an insurance agent and agency owner for several years. She was hands on during her children’s upbringing … everything from being a girl scout leader to assisting with soccer teams.
