Margaret Mary “Peggy” Tabor passed away on Nov. 2, 2021 at home with her family in Omaha, Nebraska. She was born on Dec. 12, 1969 in Joplin, MO to Don and Catherine Gorman - the youngest of 4 children.
Peggy attended Notre Dame de Sion Preparatory School for Girls (Since 1912) and Rockhurst College, both in Kansas City, MO. During these years, Peggy spent her time perfecting her tennis game and making lifelong friendships. Most recently, Peggy worked with the wonderful team at Godfather’s Pizza’s corporate office.
Peggy married her best friend Don “D.T.” Tabor on Nov. 12, 1999. They had three wonderful children, Mary Catherine (Cate), Michael (Mick), and William (Will). Together, the Tabors made friends with everyone they met at their various homes in the Midwest.
Those who know Peg know that she always had an open front door, welcoming all to stop by and visit when they pleased. Everyone knew she was the Life of the Party. She would stay up all night chatting with her friends (and especially her nephews-in-law). She loved playing games, watching movies, decorating for the holidays, and watching her Chiefs play football. She loved all things Irish and trips to Table Rock Lake & Lake of the Ozarks with family and friends.
Above all, Peggy was the most dedicated wife, mother, daughter, and sister. Family was of the utmost importance to her - she was always there. Those who know her best know that she was “strong to quite strong.”
Peggy is preceded in death by her father Don Gorman, sister Kathy T. Gorman, nephew Jimmy Gorman, and father-in-law Don E. Tabor.
She is survived by her husband Don, children Mary Cate, Mick, and Will; mother, Catherine Gorman; brother Jim Gorman, his wife Janet, and their daughters Emily, Elizabeth Tompkins (Chris), and Erin (Jack Gooderl); brother Mike Gorman, his wife Kathy, and their children Katie Bechina (Mike), and Maggie Taulbee (Austin); great nieces Anna and Lucy Bechina; mother-in-law Mary Jane Tabor and the Tabor Family; and her faithful dog Winnie. Peggy leaves behind many wonderful friends from every stage of her life.
