It is with great sadness that our family wishes to inform you of the passing of Agnes Robertson at the age of 82. Agnes was born in Huxley, Alberta on July 23, 1926 and she passed away peacefully in her sleep November 16, at the Golden Hills Lodge in Three Hills where she has resided for the past few years. She was predeceased by her parents Olga and Nigel Morse, her husband Bill Robertson, her sister Marge, brothers Ted and Wally, grandson Corey Giesbrecht and recently, her special friend Stan Young. She is survived by her daughters, Wilma (Gilbert) Giesbrecht, Pat (Don) Blake, Marj (Steve) Higdon, Karen (Ken) Buchannan, her son Neil (Sheila) Robertson and their families including her seven grandchildren and ten great grandchildren. She is also survived by her sisters Edith and Fran, brothers Bob, and Joe, and brother-in-law Sandy (Bea) Robertson, as well as numerous nieces and nephews and extended family. Agnes was a loving and dedicated mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Some of her most enjoyable times at the lodge were the social activities with her friends, including helping out with morning coffee and hospital of other residents. She took great pride in her African Violets and planting and caring for the garden courtyard at the lodge, especially her Gladiola. Memorial services will be held at the Carbon United Church on Thursday, November 20, 2008 at 1:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Alberta Children’s Hospital where two of her great-granddaughters are currently receiving treatments.
