She worked at Pacific Bell in San Francisco, where she met and married Jack Rice. They settled down in Denver, CO. to start their family. During this time, she met Dr. Bradley who was developing a new form of natural childbirth called "The Bradley Method". Peggi became one of the instructors, and each of her children was born by this natural method. Later, the family moved to Ramona, CA. in 1969; where she became very involved with the community including getting the Ramona Jr. Fair moved to its new location, and she continued to serve for the next 25 years, Kiwanis Club, Friends of the Library, Ramona Disaster Action Team for 10 years, and the Red Cross.
