AGNES ISABEL ANDERSON

It is with great sadness that we announce the loss of our mother, Isabel, in her 94th year on Feb. 14, 2003.
She was born June 9, 1909 in Virden, Man. to the late Elmer and Mary Alice English. Mother’s grandparents were 1881 pioneers at Virden, where she and her sisters were raised.
Although she lived in Fort Frances, Ont. for more than 60 years, Mother never lost her love of the Manitoba prairie.
All through her years, she was actively involved in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, played the organ at services, and was a member of their Relief Society.
She enjoyed gardening, baking excellent goodies for her grandchildren, and creating various crafts.
She was predeceased in 1981 by our father, John Jerome (Jack), her husband of 46 years; and in 1936 by our brother, Arthur; in 1988 by her granddaughter, Sarah Alice Anderson; and in 1997 by her great-grandson, Gabriel Anderson.
She also was predeceased by her sisters and their husbands, Jean (William) Gardener, Vera (John) Wolfe, Eva (George) Erickson, Loreen (Roger) Brand, and Mary (Cliff) Warner.
She is lovingly honoured by her children, George and Rosa and their children, Nancy (Perfecto), Trevor (Lynne), John Inca (Tara), and David; Ross and Ann-Jane and their children, Joel (Mary), Paul, and Karl; and Boyd and Audrey and their children, Lara, Casey, and Jamee; four great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
Honourary pallbearers are her friends from the church and her neighbours.
Internment will be Wednesday, Feb. 19 at 10 a.m. at Riverview Cemetery in Fort Frances, followed with a memorial service at 11 a.m. at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Donations may be made to the Rainycrest Auxiliary or the charity of your choice.
