Peggy J. Farkas

May 1, 1925 — April 19, 2023

Peggy June Farkas (nee Campbell), age 97, passed from this life on April 19, 2023 in Sebring.

She was born on May 1, 1925 in Akron, the daughter of the late Christopher and Ina (nee Hathaway) Campbell.

Other than her parents, Peggy was preceded in death by her husband of 48 years, Steve Farkas; and her son Dr. Stephen A. Farkas.

Peggy was a legal secretary who worked for several law firms in the Akron area. She was involved in many volunteer organizations including the Ellet Women's Club and Keep Akron Beautiful.
