AGNES MARIE GOLDING
(GGG)

After 93 well lived years, the 94th was not so kind to Aggie and she quickly slipped away June 4, 2019, with Courntey and Christian by her side. She is now free and at peace.
Left with loving memories, daughter Dawn and husband Ralph Burokas, and the absolute adoration of her heart, and love of her life, granddaughters, Vanessa (Jon) and Courtney (Christian). Her granddaughters were her reason for carrying on so long. The joy and love they brought her was immense. In her late 80s she could be found attending Vanessa's university basketball games and Courtney's hockey and soccer games. Not much of a cook but her cookie jar was always full with the store bought variety and apparently she made the best ever grilled cheese sandwiches and an awesome pot roast!
She was the girls' personal chauffeur for many years and together they made countless happy memories. It was on November 11, 2010 that she became Triple G "GGG" thank-you Jonathon. Great-Grandma Golding. With the birth of Charles (her husband's namesake) followed by Alex (which happened to be her dads' name) and finally our little Teddy, she simply adored her great grandsons. It was their pictures she wanted in her nursing home.
Predeceased by her infant daughter Barbara Gail, her beloved husband Chuck and her only sibling Roy, mother outlived most of her girlfriends except for Hilda. Hilda we thank you for your friendship. We would be remiss not to thank Arlette, Barb and Terry at Legion Housing for their help. Mom truly enjoyed her last decade spent there. The camaraderie and crib games made her happy.
Mom was a huge Blue Bomber fan. She has just received the bomber schedule last week and was stocking up on potato chips and Coke Zero to watch the games. We are broken hearted that this won't happen.
A private memorial service will be held at a later date and those attending will be sporting blue and gold.

Rest in Peace Mom.
