Guy
Peggy Jo Walcik Raesner of Guy, TX, went to be with the Lord on March 11, 2022, in Richmond, TX, at the age of 80.
Peggy is survived by her children, Greg Raesner and his wife, Janet, Kyle Raesner and his special friend, Michelle; and granddaughter, Makenzie Raesner and her special friend Jacob. She is also survived by her sister Doris Gurecky and her husband, Joe, sister in-law Martha Miller and numerous nieces & nephews.
She is preceded in death by her loving husband, Clyde Raesner; her parents Ed and Norma Walcik, her in-laws Homer Raesner and Sophie Zwahr Raesner McDougal, step-father in-law, Claude McDougal & her brother in-law, Alton Raesner.
Peggy was born on August 26, 1941, in Guy, Texas to Ed and Norma Walcik. She was a 1959 graduate of Needville High School and later married her high school sweetheart, Clyde Raesner, on June 3, 1961. She obtained her Bachelors of Arts from Sam Houston State Teachers College in August of 1962 and began her teaching career at Dulles High School in Sugar Land, Texas. After the couple was blessed with the birth of 2 sons, she took a short leave to raise her family & later returned to teaching English at Needville High School, where she later (reluctantly) retired. Her passion has always been education and being involved with kids. She demonstrated this through her involvement in the PALS program, the Needville Youth Fair & establishing the Guy 4-H club.
Peggy spent many happy years supporting Clyde & her two boys going fishing, participating in rodeos, farming, working cattle, showing animals, dancing and being with friends and family. Her hobbies included reading a book, oftentimes in only a couple hours, gambling, crocheting, embroidery, cross word puzzles & attending plays. Her sons and granddaughter remember her as a sassy, spit fire, who always spoke her mind & always made her presence known.
