They shared over sixty-nine years together until his passing on October 13, 2014.
She was a faithful member of St. Patrick’s Church, where she attended mass and participated in the church Altar Society. Her faith was very important to her; she was the family Prayer Warrior and prayed daily for her family.
Agnes was very proud of her family and enjoyed being a farm wife. She was a wonderful cook, enjoyed gardening and canning and was known for many of her meals, but especially home fried chicken for Sunday dinner with the family. Her grandchildren became her world; she loved playing with them, and she always had sugar cookies and brownies prepared for the grandkids to enjoy.
She was preceded in death by her husband; and her siblings, Maynard (Priscilla) Scholz, Leonard Scholz, Henry (Dorothy) Scholz, Rosaleen (George) Ramsey and Ethelreda (Leonard) Penning.
Left to cherish the wonderful memories are her children, Marlene (Dennis) Wagner, Larry (Trudy) Lohman, Gary (Patti) Lohman, Dan (Teresa) Lohman; thirteen grandchildren, thirty great grandchildren, six great-great grandchildren and a sister-in-law, Wanda Scholz.
