Tiffin

Peggy L. Moerdyk, 67, of Tiffin, died October 8, 2024, at her residence. 

She was born January 2, 1957, in Saginaw, Michigan to Fred and Arlene (Keinath) Aven. She met her husband, Phil, at Central Michigan University and they were married June 14, 1980 in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. 

Along with her husband, Peggy is survived by a son Jonathan (Katie) Moerdyk of Murrysville, Pennsylvania; a daughter, Megan (Christoph) Schauwecker of Lowell, Oregon; a granddaughter, Addison Moerdyk; two sisters, Judy (Randy) Heine of Traverse City, Michigan and Janet (Dennis) Zimmerman of Freeland, Michigan; and a step-brother, David (Kathy) Estep of Freeland, Michigan. She was preceded in death by her parents, step-mother Dee Aven, and step-brother Jim Estep. 

The cornerstones of Peggy’s life were faith, family, and the sanctity of life. She was part of multiple Bible studies, was instrumental in establishing children’s Bible curriculum at Family of Faith Lutheran Church, and was a co-facilitator for GriefShare in Tiffin for many years.
