Maxine WINQUIST Obituary
Unexpectedly passed away in an automobile accident on June 30, 2012 at the age of 87 years. She will be lovingly remembered by her three children: Anne (Donald) of Sherwood Park, AB, Allan of Calgary, AB, Karen (Rob) of Richmond, BC and eight grandchildren; Robert, Michael, Gina, Luke, Tyler, Joey, Kayla and Alyssa. Sadly predeceased by her husband, David, infant granddaughter, Karen and brothers; Wayne and Tommy Agnew. Maxine was on her way to her hometown of Penticton, BC to join her family for their annual holiday. For the past ten years this time together was always eagerly anticipated and enjoyed by all who attended. This vacation was especially meaningful to Maxine as she loved to spend time with her children and grandchildren at the place where her family of origin had such a deep history and heritage. A Graveside Service on August 20, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. will permanently return Maxine to her roots as she will be buried with her parents at the Lakeview Cemetery in Penticton as was her wish. Condolences may be sent to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.

I am saddened to hear about Auntie Mac. Sending my thoughts and prayers. This is a beautiful picture of Auntie Mac, she looks so much like my dad (Tom, her brother), that amongst my sorrow of her passing, it made me smile for a second to think she is visiting him now. Thanks for letting us know, Debbie Tarnow (nee Agnew)
