Statement on the passing of Peggy Kresge

General Foundation News

The Kresge Foundation staff and trustees extend our deepest condolences to the Kresge family on the loss of Peggy Kresge, beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Peggy, alongside her husband Dr. Bruce Kresge and their five children – Deborah McDowell, Susan Drewes, Katherine Lutey, Cynthia Kresge and Scott Kresge – eagerly supported the foundation’s work and milestones with enthusiasm and curiosity.

She will be remembered for her warm and supportive presence, and for her deep interest in the foundation’s work to promote human progress.
