Obituaries: Margaret Conley Sebesta

January 30, 2017

 On Sunday January 22, 2017 Margaret “Peggy” Conley Sebesta entered into eternal life, after a short battle with cancer. She was 74 years young. The daughter of the late Mary (Bates) and Albert N. Conley, Peggy was born on January 22, 1943 in Cornwall, NY. She was predeceased by her husband, Paul W. Sebesta, Jr.

Peggy was a retired Home Health Care Aide from The Orange County Health Department.

Peggy was a loyal servant of the Lord. She sang in the choir and was a lay reader at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Cornwall for over 60 years.

Peggy’s family will forever miss her but shall cherish the memories of family vacations to Florida and Lake George as well as camping at the Neversink River Campground during the summer. Peggy was a loving, devoted and proud Mother, Grandmother and wife. She loved helping others and would give the shirt off her back to a total stranger if they asked for it.

Peggy is survived by her daughters: Paula Sebesta & Fiancé Donny Howard of Cornwall; Kristen Sebesta Boyle (Jack) of Newburgh, Patricia Bates (Kenny) of New Windsor and Carmen Jimenez (Bobbie) of Sanford, FL. Her sons: James Sebesta (Karin) of Cornwall and Paul G Sebesta (Linda) of Deltona, FL. Her grandchildren: Raymond, Tyler, Paul & Joey Sebesta, Eddie, Lesia & Robert Jimenez, Kenny, Cobey and Brian Bates, Jennifer & Sean Boyle and her grand puppies Liberty and Paisley as well as 13 great grandchildren and 1 great-great grandchild on its way. Brothers: Joel and E. James Conley. Sister: Mary Jane Conley and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her brother Albert N. Conley.
