Born in North Dorchester Township in 1923, Agnes trained as a nurse at Woodstock General Hospital. After marriage, she and Ted farmed in North Oxford Township (now Zorra Township) and then retired to Woodstock in 1978. Agnes worked tirelessly both at home and as a volunteer in her community. She particularly enjoyed gardening and was an avid reader all her life.

According to her wishes, a private graveside service will be held at Banner Cemetery. Arrangements are entrusted to Morley Bedford Funeral Services, Toronto. As expressions of sympathy, memorial donations may be made to St David's United Church, Woodstock; UHN Foundation or a charity of your choice.
