Aggie embodied fearlessness and independence, yet she also had a tender and compassionate heart. Her strong-willed and stubborn nature was a testament to her unwavering spirit.

• Legacy of Love
• A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
• This legacy we have from you.
• You taught us love and how to fight,
• You gave us strength, you gave us might.
• A stronger person would be hard to find,
• And in your heart, you were always kind.
• You fought for us all in one way or another,
• Not just as a wife, not just as a mother.
• For all of us you gave your best,
• Now the time has come for you to rest.
• So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep,
• Your love in our hearts, we’ll eternally keep.
