I was privileged to know Mrs Haggerty for many years. I remember her as a deeply thoughtful person, loyal friend, kind mother to her family and a gift from our Lord to our world. I believe the world today needs more strong women of integrity like she was.

I was privileged to have Mrs Haggerty as a loyal friend for many years. When almighty God before the beginning of time designed his world, I believe he gave us I find lady like her a special gift. She was a quiet, deep thoughtful, warm-hearted woman strong woman to her family and community. In our present world of tumult I wish there were more women like Mrs Haggerty today.

Dear Sharon & Billy & family, Mom and I are so terribly sorry about the passing of your mother. I remember back to all the times when we were kids that she made us lunch or dinner after playing in the barn and outside all day. I remember her wearing her kerchief in the barn while milking and her letting us get fresh milk out of the bull tank. She was always so kind and had a good sense of humor. I will remember her fondly. My Mom sends her condolences as well but is having a difficult time remembering now. Unfortunately , we can´t make the funeral. With deepest heartfelt sympathy, Robin & Roberta 4
