Agnes Wooldridge Obituary

Agnes Fern Wooldridge, born on June 8, 1940, in Stephensburg, Kentucky, passed away on November 5, 2025. She was a remarkable woman whose strength and selflessness were apparent to all who knew her. Agnes was a long-time faithful member of Graceland Baptist Church, where she dedicated much of her time and energy working in the kitchen and the daycare, nurturing both the bodies and spirits of those in her community.

Agnes embodied a spirit of service that transcended her professional roles; she was a pillar of her family, celebrated for the unwavering love and support she provided to her husband, Ernest Wooldridge, with whom she shared a steadfast marriage for 70 wonderful years. Together they raised a loving family that includes their children: Pamela Harris, Timothy Wooldridge, Anthony Wooldridge (Marina Hagan), and Angela Tinius.

Her legacy continues through her grandchildren: Anthony Wooldridge, Tara Wooldridge, Heather Conway, Candace (William) Elder, Lisa Tinius, Brittany (Brandon) Harris Hall, and Meagan Tinius. Additionally, she was the proud grandmother to 14 great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her siblings: Ronald (Minnie) Miller, Paul (Bonnie) Miller, Violet Johnson, Darrell (Loraine) Miller, Mildred Pierce, and Freddie (Peggy) Miller.

Agnes was preceded in death by her parents, Oscar Miller and Nettie Elliott Miller; her son, Timothy Wooldridge; her son-in-law, Donald Harris; as well as her brothers, Adrian Miller and Sheridan Miller.

Visitation will be from 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Tuesday, November 11, 2025 at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions (3309 Ballard Lane, New Albany). Her Funeral Service will be at 10:00 am on Wednesday, at the funeral home with entombment to follow at Kraft-Graceland Memorial Park.
