The actress and mother of Rashida and Kidada Jones died in May after suffering from colon cancer. She was 72. "We are heartbroken that our beloved mother passed away from cancer today," her daughters said in a statement. "She made her journey peacefully with her daughters and nieces by her side. We feel so lucky for every moment we spent with her. We can't put all of our feelings into words right now but we will say: Peggy was, and will always be our beacon of light, both in this world and beyond. She will always be a part of us."
