My deepest condolences to Lorne and family. Whenever I stopped in for a visit, Aggie always made sure I got a bowl of homemade soup. I have such beautiful photos taken the day after Aggie's 100th birthday. We looked at all the wonderful cards and photos friends and family had given her including the one from Queen Elizabeth. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. - Posted by: Maureen Frolick (Friend of Lorne Klassen via Nature Manitoba) on: Mar 14, 2021

Aggie will be remembered for a life well lived. A generous, kind and loving woman who was very hospitable. She was the face of Christ for us. We will miss her. Our deepest condolences to her family. - Posted by: Linda Whitford & George Neufeld (Friends from church) on: Feb 22, 2021

Aggie had been my friend, and almost like my mom since I know her and her family. She is an inspiration to me for kindness, loving. Each year of Christmas, our family was invited to be with her family. Aggie made a great Christmas dinners, almost everything was home made, delicious multigrain bread, preserved veggies, like beans, cabbage and meat too as well as home made crabapple and tomato juices. She loved swimming and taught me to. Love Aggie! - Posted by: LIYA JU (Long time friend since 1988) on: Feb 20, 2021
