Portville - Peggy L. Kincaid    

            Peggy Lee Layton Kincaid, 76, of Portville, passed away on Saturday, January 5, 2019, following an illness.

            Peggy was born in Dallas, TX and was the daughter of Leon and Helen Layton, Sr.  She was a 1960 graduate of Portville Central School.

            Peggy was gifted, talented, and proud to be from a military family. She loved owning and operating The Donut Express and the Portville Citgo for 12 years.  She also owned a truck and car wash for 6 years on the same property.  Peggy truly loved to write and paint when she had the time.  She was a part of a 5 generation photo 3 times in her life.

            Peggy Lee leaves behind; the love of her life, John C. Childs; a daughter, Kandy (Jeff) Bartholomew of Bradford, PA; 2 sons, Jack Kincaid, Jr. of Jamestown and Chris Kincaid of Portville; 2 sisters Barb (Del) Valeriay of Boca Raton, FL and Penny (Jane) Mennie of Gresham, OR; 3 brothers, Leon Layton, Jr., Terry (Brenda) Layton, and Mike (Cindy) Layton of Portville; a half sister, Judy Layton of Friendship; 6 grandchildren; 11 great grandchildren; 2 great great granddaughters; and many nieces and nephews.

            Peggy is now with her mom and dad, Helen and Leon Layton, Sr., her half sister Patsy Layton, and one great grandson Evyn Studley.

            We will certainly miss her spirited discussions of her political views.  It is hard to forget someone who gave you so much to remember.  She leaves us with a poem written by her mom, whom she missed dearly.

Loved and Lost

If by chance we should ever meet

again in that dimension called after-death

Would you know and recognize my

soul as special from the rest?

I'm the one who loved and lost you,

the one ho loved you est.

I'm the one who still loves you,

with a love that knows no death.

                             ~Helen Layton
