| 19219 | North Tonawanada NY Evening News - 2/14/1967 A lonely heart, having been broken and mended many times, iither shrinks with bitterness or grows with understanding. When "it grows large and loving, we trail it a Valentine. Mrs. Margaret Langbehn, a former Tonawandan who lives in Sanborn is a Valentine. Her friends call her Peggy but today -we are going to call her "Peg O' My Heart." The little 78-pound woman spends all of her spare time inaking baskets and jewel boxes °from Christmas cards. Patients 5n DeGraff Memorial Hospital and area nursing homes who have had one of her little baskets delivered to their room, are seldom aware that the donor fashioned them so painstakingly with her arthritic hands. "It's all I know how to do and all I can afford," she says. "It's so wonderful to be able to give something to make others hap- py. When I do, then I am happy too. ° **I started making the baskets 43 years ago after a serious operation, and I needed something to do during a long convalescence," she said. "My husband, -Hubert, helped me get started. cutting a pattern and helping me fit the pieces together. When my health was better, I carried the first 100 baskets to DeGraff Memorial Hospital, walking from E lm Wood Park, Tonawanda, where we lived at the time. It was a bitter, wintry day so I left them at the desk and hospital personnel distributed them. It's a trip I have made many times since. "Later I included other hospitals and nursing homes on my list. I also have mailed hundreds to individuals when I read or heard about anyone incurably HI In most cases, I receive no thank-you at all but the lack of it has never bothered me." Nobody knows better than Peggy what it means to be truly alone in the world. Now 58 years old, she doesn't know for sure who she is. She can't recall anything beyond her fifth birthday when a Niagara Falls family took her from an orphan's home in Pennsylvania. All they knew about her was her birth date. The family called her Margaret and kept her until shg was 13 years old. She then went to work in a Buffalo Meat Packing Co. rather than return to a home. She went to school on Thursdays in order to make her working "legal" and studied typing so that she could better herself. She went to . South Carolina when she was about 20, then to Georgia and later to Florida, working first as a waitress, then for the government. In Florida, she was married. "I thought: Finally, there is someone to care for me," she said. But her husband went blind and she worked to support them. He later died and Peggy was tossed out into the world again. During these years, she saved her money and three times traveled to the Pennsylvania capitol to learn her identity. On the third trip, personnel in the records department said there were 13 girls bom Feb. 9, 1909 and 12 had been accounted for. 'Then you must be ," they said. But she will never really know. After her husband's death, Peggy returned to Buffalo. Here she met and married Hubert Langbehn. That was 20 years ago. The couples married life has been happy but it has been beset by illness and hardship. They never complain. Last year, Mr. Langbehn had a serious operation. Their finances fell to a low ebb and they moved to Sanborn. There they rented a 150-year-old farm house on Bridgeman Road. Farm animals had been housed in the cottage. Together the couple set about cleaning it up and slowly but surely, they are making it livable. With a few bags of cement they have begun to shore up the foundation and pave the walks. Peggy planted tomatoes and vegetables to eat, and roses around a dry well to make their life more beautiful They get their water from a neighbor's well. Peggy has a washing machine but no room in the cottage for it, so she heats the icy water, washes their clothing in the bathtub and wrings them with her aching hands. Her husband whom she has nicknamed "Bounce" works nights in Buffab to avoid traffic. If her hands don't pain too badly, Peggy then gets her sewing out and works'on her little baskets. Each side of each basket, though it may feature a cold snow scene, will be shaped at the top like a big heart. If those who receive the baskets look carefully, they can read Peg's simple message: "I love you. Be my Valentine." | ZASTROW, Margaret (I74831)
