Margaret May Heintz

DIXFIELD – Margaret “Peggy” Heintz of Dixfield, loving mother of three, grandmother and great grandmother of many passed away at the age of 85. Peggy was born Nov. 26, 1938, in North Wildwood, New Jersey, to Robert Tomlin Camp and Elvira Louise (Burkett) Camp. She attended school in Ocean City, New Jersey. Peggy married David “Mongo” Heintz Sr and later moved to Maine where she and her late husband, David, established Riverbend Fiberglass where she worked throughout her life.

Peggy was a brilliant seamstress with a passion for quilting. She was an avid music lover and enjoyed listening to the tunes of Frank Sinatra. Always on the hunt for a bargain, Peggy and her daughter, Wendy (a.k.a. Thelma and Louise), enjoyed riding around looking for yard sales and their next adventure together. She will be remembered by those she left behind for her heart of gold and the many memories made with her family.

Peggy was survived by her sister Barbara Jackson of Ocean View, N.J., and brother David Camp of Estell Manor, N.J.; her three children, Steven VanBlarcom of Dixfield, David Heintz Jr. and wife, Allyson of Dixfield, and Wendy Heintz of Livermore Falls,; nine grandchildren, Kristi, Stevi-Lynn, Donny, David III, Joshua, Kyle, Logan, Courtney and Warren; fourteen great grandchildren, Makayla, Mike Jr, Kristian, Caleb, Nicholas, Jonathan, Tyler, Haley, Angelina, Mika, Joshua Jr, Peter, Madison and Rylee. She was predeceased by her parents Robert and Elvira Camp, her husband David Heintz Sr., brothers Robert and Larry Camp and sister Rosemary Heintz.

A celebration of life will be held at Peggy’s home at a later date.
