Artist Peggy Chun died today surrounded by family. She leaves behind a legacy of familiar and dear watercolor scenes of the islands and inspiring memories of how she lived her life.Born in Lawton, Okla., Peggy moved to Hawai'i in 1968. She taught school and owned a successful Christmas ornament company. When her twin sister and noted artist, Bobbie Segler, died of ALS, Peggy was inspired to paint. Her work is featured in fine art galleries in Hawai'i and in private and corporate collections across the globe.
Using a spell board this May, Peggy gave these words to graduates:
"Remember, student graduates, that THE ONLY SECURITY IS COURAGE! Think about these five wonderful words, anytime fear starts creeping in. I want you to go for life at its fullest! And enjoy it for the marvelous adventure that it is."
