Peggy "Peg" A. (Broihahn) Kershner, age 63, of Deforest, passed away peacefully on Friday, October 27, 2017 at home surrounded by her family, after a long and courageous battle with breast cancer. She was born on August 27, 1954 in Dubuque, IA, the daughter of Mervin and Berniece (Langkamp) Broihahn. She married Donald Kershner on September 7, 1984 in Sun Prairie.

Peg was most proud of her three kids and changed the meaning of unconditional love. She was incredibly selfless, heroic, an amazing person that touched many lives, a devoted mother, a kind loving spouse, a compassionate friend, a second mother to many, a caring daughter and the favorite aunt. Peg was passionate about her work at the Sun Prairie Police Department where she worked for 21 years before retiring this year. Peg enjoyed life fully and was in her element helping others and cheering for her family in sports and activities. She was the number one fan and the ultimate supporter.
