I worked with her in the Registrars Office while I was a student at Mercer. She was such a sweet lady my thoughts and prayers are with her family.

While I didn't know Agnes very well, I do have fond memories of her at Mercer. She was always a cheerful and kind person to deal with. Seemed to have a good sense of wit and wisdom. I pray for her family to be consoled in their loss.
