A former American Fork resident, resi-dent, Peg Seibel lived by herself in Desert Hot Springs, CA, until last autumn, when she She has lived a lot of the history most of us just read about. When she was five her dad took her to see Teddy Rtxjsevelt as he campaigned in 1912. At age 11 she and her dad "danced" with arms around each other so they would not get separated sepa-rated by the crowds gathered in Chicago for Armistice Day. She recalls her uncle corning from the house announcing "Lindy has landed!" after hearing it on his crystal radio. Margaret Dorland Seibel was born July 16, 1907, at the home of her grandparents in Valparaiso, Indiana. She could have been one of the last children born in the Indian In-dian Territory, for her father was there surveying for the railroad and sent her mother home to "The States" to have their first child. The Dorlands moved to the brand new city of Gary, Indiana, where she and her three siblings grew up. There Peg graduated from high school and went on to briefly attend Purdue University. She returned home to marry the love of her life, J. Ralph "Dutch" Seibel, on October 9, 192(i. The Seibels' three children were born in Gary, but World War II changed all their lives forever. Late in 1943 the family relocated to Utah where Ralph helped open a new steel plant as part of the war effort. They purchased an older home at 388 West Main, American Fork, and that is where their children grew up and went off to college. The Seibels were both active in the community. Ralph was Lions Club president and Library board chairman, chair-man, among other activities. Peg held leadership roles in the Community Com-munity Presbyterian Church, PTA, Utacen Literary Society, Lady Lions, Republican Party, Women's Legislative Council and served on the Utah County Board of Health. She was a room mother, sewed a lot of spring festival costumes, and was on hand for school immunization immuniza-tion clinics at both Harrington School and AFHS. ww.heraldextra.com yellowpages The Habitat Restore sells donated new and good condition used building supplies and home materials to the public.

With a daughter's family stationed sta-tioned with the military in Italy, in 1969 the Seibels boarded an Italian freighter which took them through the Panama Canal and on to Italy, stopping at ports to deliver and take on freight. They purchased a Eurail ticket and Peg reported in her Christmas letter that "in 79 days we slept in 49 different dif-ferent beds, traveled 16,000 miles by rail and several more" by other conveyances. They thought it was the trip of lifetime, but in 1971 they returned to Europe, this time from June to November, and added stamps from the Holy Land and Egypt to their passports. By this time, the Seibels were true Californians. They had wintered win-tered in Desert Hot Springs previously, previ-ously, and in 1970 purchased a mobile home in a new park. They continued to travel, but winters found them enjoying the leisurely life and friendships of the park and Presbyterian Church. Their last trip was to Hawaii in the spring of 1975. After celebrating 49 years of marriage, Ralph died in December 1975. After being widowed, Peg traveled trav-eled with friends to such destinations destina-tions as Alaska and New Zealand, and visited family all over the USA. In addition to being active ac-tive in the Presbyterian Church, she embarked on a volunteer career that included many organizations. orga-nizations.

One of Peg's special talents has been handwork, ranging from her "nonesuch" abstract designs of cut paper used for covering boxes to her fine tatting, needlepoint and embroidery. A group of her oil paintings is displayed on her living liv-ing room wall. She was a leader in planning park social events and joined in the nightly games when "winter folks" were there. She loves telling tell-ing the story of a newcomer who asked about cribbage players. He was told he should "go easy" on Peggy because she was 97 years old, but caught on pretty fast that 97 years didn't slow her down. Joining Peg for the birthday celebration will be her son Richard Rich-ard (Stephonie) Seibel of Glendale, CA; Martha Lou (Gene) Loer of Austin, TX; Sarah (Bill, deceased) of Brigham City, UT (all AFHS graduates); eight grandchildren traveling from Oregon, Nevada, Utah, California and Texas most of her 13 great-grandchildren and two great-greats; several nieces and families, and some old friends from American Fork.

As for the past 100 years, Peg says she has lived "a charmed life" growing up in a loving family, then a good husband and happy home life, wonderful travel years with Ralph, and a host of family and friends who still look forward to her letters.
