Mom and Husky

Margaret “Peg” Moore

Margaret “Peg” Moore passed away peacefully on June 23rd in St Louis, aged 80.

Born and raised in Connecticut, Peg earned a degree in education from Danbury State College, married and raised two children while indulging in her lifelong passion for animals. She worked as a veterinary technician, volunteered annually at the Iditarod sled dog race in Alaska and was a member of Gateway Sled Dog Club in St Louis. She also fostered and found homes for abandoned dogs.

She and husband David, who passed in 2021, enjoyed their shared interest in archaeology with trips to ancient sites in Greece, Turkey and Egypt. She could also be found on weekends in the family season seats at Busch Stadium cheering on her Cardinals.

She is survived by two sons, Eric and Stephen, three grandchildren and two great grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests supporting her chosen charity for 2025 Jailbreak Husky Rescue. https://www.jailbreakhuskyrescue.org/

    Peg,

    You were a “one in a million” people with a heart of gold! You will be truly missed by many folks and pupperz! I’m so glad I got to meet you, even though our adoption fell through. Your stories of Alaska never grew old!

    To your family, I offer my sincerest condolences on your immeasurable losses. Rest assured knowing that she’s on that Bridge and making “improvements” as I type this! 🐾🌈

    Rest in Paradise Peg and enjoy running, pain free now, with your pack!!

    Peg was just an amazing person. She was a true friend and lover of Siberians and Malamutes. I will miss being able to chat with her on Facebook. She had been having many health struggles but more so her loss of being to be as active physically in her rescue efforts. I hope she has found peace and is with Fuzzy Butt and all the amazing animals and people that have passed before her. Hugs to her family who are morning her loss

    🐺🌈We are heartbroken to hear of the passing of Peg Moore, a true angel in the husky rescue community. Peg was more than a supporter—she was a force of compassion.

    She fostered, donated, transported, gathered supplies, and helped so many huskies find their way home. Her kindness touched countless lives, both human and canine. The rescue world shines a little less brightly without her. Run free, Peg. Your legacy lives on in every tail wag and every saved life. 💙🐾

    RIP Peg. And enjoy all those rescues at the Bridge!
