Peggy Skidmore

Peggy E. Rodriguez Skidmore, 65, of Baden, passed away Monday October 6, 2025 at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital, surrounded by loved ones.

Born May 24, 1960, in Augsburg, Germany, she was the daughter of the late Joseph and Edith Kaube Rodriguez.

Peggy was a social butterfly, always at the center of laughter and fun, whether at a party, a bingo game, or during her travels with her girlfriends. Her love for cooking and baking reflected her nurturing nature, providing comfort and happiness through a well-cooked meal or a freshly baked pastry. Peggy had an exceptional talent for painting ceramics, a hobby that showcased her creativity and eye for beauty. She spent time working as a bartender and also worked at a daycare.

Most of all, she enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren.

Surviving are her two children, Jeffrey Allen (Romona) Skidmore Jr., and Alisha Key; sister, Maria Lee; five grandchildren, Malik Strickland, Jalissa Strickland, Justin Burchell-Skidmore, Rebecca Stewart, and Liam Stewart; two nephews, Matthew Robert Lee, and Robert Donald Lee; and many more family members and friends.

A Celebration of Life will be held Sunday from 1-4 PM at the Baden Borough Building, 149 State Street Baden, PA 15005.

Professional services were entrusted to CORLESS-MATTER FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, LLC 1133 Church Street, Ambridge.
