Manton, Michigan - Peggy R. Cornett, a longtime resident of Manton passed away peacefully at her Manton home following a short illness on Tuesday, December 5, 2017. She was 91.
Peggy was born on June 2, 1926, in Troy, Michigan. She was the last surviving child of 15 brothers and sisters of George and Bertha (Strouse) Cinader. Following World War II, she married Carl Cornett in 1947. For nearly 70 years she remained a loyal and loving wife and mother, helping her husband hand-build their first home to running a family business in Manton for 25 years. She remains sorely missed by those whose lives she touched who knew her as a hard working, supportive, caring person.
