Agnes P. Medek, 100-year-old resident of Pierz, MN, passed away Wednesday, November 10, 2021 at the Pierz Villa in Pierz, MN.

A Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 11:30 A.M. on Wednesday, November 17, 2021 at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Pierz, MN with Father Ken Popp officiating.

Agnes was born on November 12, 1920 in Buckman Township, Morrison County to the late Frank and Theresa (Kolenberger) Gangl. She was united in marriage to Anthony Medek on June 14, 1941 at St. Michael's Catholic Church in Buckman, MN. Together Agnes and Anthony farmed east of Pierz, MN for many years. After Anthony passed away in 2000, she moved off the farm and into the city of Pierz, MN. In her free time, she enjoyed making quilts, playing cards and bingo. Agnes was a very devout Catholic that had a deep faith in the Lord and her church. She was a lifetime member of the Christian Mothers and St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Pierz, MN. Her family was the love and joy of her life, and she truly enjoyed every moment they spent together. After Agnes left her home at age 97, she became a resident at the Pierz Villa where she resided up until her death. Agnes was dearly loved and will be greatly missed.

I was a high school student when I met and started working with Agnes, (1968) in the kitchen at the Pierz Villa. You could not but like her. She was such a wonderful person. She sometimes had to call me on a Saturday mornings to see if I was coming to work.
I would run to the villa. Agnes had done alot of my work, but she never yelled at me. She knew I knew..... She is/was a great woman in my mind.
