Margaret McKinney Obituary

Margaret "Peg" McKinney

Margaret "Peg" McKinney, 65, of Fostoria, passed away Wednesday, June 28, 2023, at ProMedica Fostoria Community Hospital.

She was born Jan. 17, 1958, in Douglas, Arizona, to John and Catherine (Hanks) McKinney, the final daughter in a family of six girls.

Peg is survived by two sisters, Diane Holifield of Meridian, Ohio, and Beth (James) Zuehlke of Fostoria.

Peg was preceded in death by her parents; and three sisters, Loretta Decker, Virginia Krolikowski, and Kathleen Tibbs.

Peg lived most of her life in Nebraska. She was a graduate of Northwest High School in Grand Island, Nebraska, and completed her training as a registered nurse in Kearney, Nebraska. She worked 12 years at Grand Island VA Medical Center and then spent most of the rest of her nursing career in Home Health Care, most recently at ProMedica Home Health out of Clyde. She retired in January of this year.

For years, Peg devoted much of her after-work hours towards the care of her mother who suffered from Parkinson's and other ailments. By doing so, she was a blessing to both of her parents.

Peg was an involved Christian, always interested in the welfare of others. Peg shared her open-hearted attitude and slightly zany sense of humor with everyone she knew.

There are no plans for services in Ohio. Interment will be in Nebraska at a later date.

Arrangements are being handled by HOENING FUNERAL HOME, 242 W. Tiffin St., Fostoria, Ohio, 44830.
