Our sincere condolences on the passing of Tante Agnes. We just found out this evening and are sharing many stories of our times with her. Especially the times when our Mom and Agnes would start telling jokes.We sometimes wouldn't get the joke because they would be laughing so hard it was almost impossible to hear the words! She was always welcoming and gracious.

This message of sympathy comes from Peter Warkentin of Chilliwack, who was a cousin to Agnes. His mother was Sara (Fast) Warkentin. He says he lost touch with Agnes when she went to the US years ago, but recalls talking to Cathy in Chilliwack since then. He has had a storke and suffers from dementia, but when I read the obituary to him he remembered who Agnes was. May God bring comfort to all of you. From Rosalea Warkentin on behalf of Peter.
