Obituary CONTOOCOOK- Mrs. Margaret F. “Peggy” Morrill, 94, a longtime resident of Contoocook, passed away peacefully at her son’s home on April 4, 2020 after a period of declining health. Born in Weymouth, MA, she was the daughter of the late Evelyn Vargus White and granddaughter of the late Flora and Oscar Vargus. She was raised and educated in Rockland, MA before moving to New Hampshire in her early 20s, where she married Harold Darrah Sr. and had 8 children.

In earlier years, she had worked at the Weymouth Navy Yard. Peggy enjoyed knitting and crocheting, playing the organ and accordion and bowling. She loved sitting on her swing and watching the birds. Up until recently, she used her gift of knitting to make hats and mittens for the newborns in the hospital and also made handmade puppets. As she would often say to her family and friends: “be good to each other.” Peggy was predeceased by her husband, Richard Morrill, her infant twin boys Russell and Edward, her daughter, Judith Darrah, her sister, Amelia Vargas and her longtime companion, John Bartlett.
