Agnes May Vanderstelt (Reid)

7/19/2018

Born in Fort Qu' Appelle Saskatchewan, May 28, 1931. Agnes married Tom in Collingwood in 1956.

Dearly cherished by her husband and their sons Bill (Debi) and Gord (Bev), and her 7 grandchildren, Rae-Lynn, Joshua, Kelly, Shannon, James, Kate, and Emily and 5 great grandchildren Jaden, Anita, Lilli, Amelia and Eliza. Agnes had a quiet faith and love for others. She allowed her grandchildren to stomp through her beautiful gardens as she shared her passion for gardening in God's creation with them. Her avid crossword puzzle habit, puzzles, and her love of taking her grandchildren to McDonald's, despite her dislike of their food, will always be a fond memory for her family.

Cremation has taken place. Memorial visitation with the family to be held at Doon Presbyterian Church, 35 Roos St. Kitchener, Sunday July 22nd, 2:00 - 5:00 p.m.

A celebration of life and God's faithfulness will be held at Doon Presbyterian Church, Kitchener on Monday July 23rd at 11:00 a.m.
